THREE NEW UFOs


I was at a quilting retreat last week. And, you know what? I now have three more UFOs. Oh yes I do. 
This quilt needs 60 blocks. But, after a full day of making these blocks, I got a bit bored and took on my second project that was all cut and ready to go.



It requires a boat load of blocks and again, I was ready to move on after about ten hours of sewing the same block.



This is a quilt as you go project and it is probably a bit more fun watching it come together….and I like the colors a lot. So, I worked on this for two full days.


But, in the end, I came home with three new UFOs. (Unfinished Objects)

 At least I quilted and turned in a little baby quilt for our guild’s philanthropy. Another member had pieced it.




Hope you have a good week and

Quilt happy,

ANOTHER FINISH AND THREE READY TO GO



“Out of Africa” is finally finished, right though the binding. It is a product of a 2014 Row Swap. I think it’s my new favorite. My favorites change often. But, for now….

 


I have put together a few kits to take with me to our Big Bear retreat.


The perfect guy quilt kit.

 


This is another guy quilt kit.

 


But, this is a girly “Quilt As You Go Quilt”. This is the first time I have ever used this technique. I made this sample block. It’s going to be fun!


Hope you have a good week and

Quilt happy,
