I’m changing up the order of posts today. I was going to blog about how I organize my UFOs, but it’s been a big day. I’ve been in town all day getting DD partly moved into her new unit, and then a funeral this afternoon of a dear friend. It’s nearly 8pm and I need to eat dinner and then go check on my friend’s wife…
So I thought I’d show you the UFOs I’ve started (yes started!) working on! Hopefully by next show and tell I’ll have a few of them done! That’s the goal at least 🙂
So I have started with chain sewing for this Disappearing Nine Patch I started in 2009:
I got one disappearing patch done way back when, and a bunch of 9 patches. All the squares were cut out for more 9 patches so I thought I’d start chain sewing them and then “disappear” them all at the same time later 🙂
I also pulled out the 100 patch to keep working on, I think I am pretty close to having all the patches done:
I then picked this strings quilt which only needs a border:
And a wallhanging that only needs binding:
And finally for something that requires a bit more thought, this BOM that Alice and I started (along with how many others Alice? 2009 was the Year of BOMs for us):
I already had a go of turning this into a finished quilt a while back, but somehow lost momentum… and I really would like to finish it, so it is going on my list of UFOs to work on this month.
So, out of the tub I filled with UFOs to work on, I have chosen these to start with. I’m actually looking forward to getting these done.. let’s see how I go!
A big day…. Hugs …… Goodluck with those projects…..
Condolences on the passing of your friend. Loving the UFOs you are begining with! good luck!
Hugs.
My condolences on the passing of your dear friend. Your quilts in progress are going to be lovely!
I can’t remember if I finished that last one or not. I will hunt for it tomorrow and then I will give you a report. Hope L is holding up. I will try to find you tomorrow.
Good to see what you’ll be working on. Nice to talk to you today & we’ll work out a day for the tree as soon as hubby is feeling fit. Take care.
