UFO'S completed







I have been using some of my holidays to get a few UFO's finished and am very happy to announce that I have completed the pineapple patch quilt top, it has been sitting waiting for a border since the end of last year , but it was started at least 5 years ago.





I have also sewn together the Row X Row from 2006 and have also added its borders.

While on a roll I sewed the binding on some caring heart blocks, I was sent over 5 years ago,that I made into a swag. Still have the hand sewing to do, so pics to still come. I have also added an extra 4 1/2" border to one end of my Christmas Table cloth (Medallion RR) to make it long enough for my huge table and have another 6 1/2" border to add all around, hoping to have that done tomorrow. Also hoping to get the Chrissy swag completed and get the pic up next post.
I still have quite a few UFO's and some are only WIP's to go but am getting to them, this is the year to knock them over.
I have decided though to keep my interest that I will allow myself a small new project after I have hand sewn the binding of the swags and when I complete my next big UFO - the dreaded Cozy Cabins I will allow myself to make my Butterfly Fling jelly roll into a quilt.
I also have some fabric cut out to make a gift for someone special cant say who yet or what it will be but I will be sewing that at My quilters Bible study on Wednesday night group

You certainly have been busy Gail. You must feel a "sense of achievement" on finishing off those UFO's.

How good it must feel to have them finished Gail - they look gorgeous too. Enjoy the rest of your holiday. They go way too quickly don't they.
