Quilting Projects - UFOs


that the filler blocks made an interesting addition to the border.

Now, something for the back - - a scrap left over from Laurie's Christmas pillows, varied shades of red roses and leaves just big enough, then some scraps of batting butted together with an zigzag seam. A "quick turn" took the place of time consuming binding, machine quilt down through the seams and around the hearts and the embroidered kitties. Three rows of stitching to firm up the edges and a hanging sleeve added by hand. I did have to change thread in the top of the machine several times, red, white, and monofilament.

FINISHED! I met the challenge for the first week! Now, what would be quick to finish for week #2 - - - - I didn't mention that I have a bed size quilt about 3/4 machine quilted that has been on the shelf for nearly 6 months. Could I get that done in a week? As our son says when he signs an email, "More later - - -."

How about YOUR UFOs? Can I challenge you to complete at least one of them before the month is over? Let me hear from you!

Happy Quilting! See you next month.
