Project Quilt UFO – April

Quilt UFO goals for April April is here, and the urge to get outside and play in the dirt is strong. This month, I will continue to focus on my Quilt UFO Projects: the Foundation Piecing projects, Jack’s Chain, and a Machine Quilting Project. I really should spend a day finishing up a couple of bindings. Soon, the nice weather outside will win out over the projects. Mariner’s Star and 4th of July Foundation Piecing…

Quilt UFO Progress I hope you have been able to…

Project Quilt UFOs 2024 – February

February Quilt UFOs Now it is time to review what I accomplished in January for the Quilt UFOs. One month down, and I am happy with the progress, especially with the foundation piecing project. This gives me hope that I will finish it this year. Breaking it down into small pieces makes it more enjoyable. While I love the looks of the patterns, the work involved can be daunting.

Quilt UFO Buster – December

Last Quilt UFO Project for 2023 Well, I am hoping that you conquered a project or two this year. Ultimately, it was all about tackling our projects in one form or another. I try to remember what my sewing area looked like before I accomplished some quilt UFO busting, especially since I still have too many projects on the shelf. Nevertheless, I will always be that type of quilter/crafter who has multiple projects going on…

Nothing like a deadline to keep you motivated. Ultimately, the sense of accomplishment was still there. It’s almost time to look back at what has been completed in 2023. My project piles are looking a bit slimmer, but there is still…

Blink, and the month is gone. Hopefully, you are fitting some quilting time in around your summer activities. My quilting time is usually in the evenings as a way to escape the stress of the day.
