More UFO'S.....Is there ever an end to them?

Here's a couple more UFO'S I found  in that same plastic bin from the other day.

These are purses without the removeable/changeable handle.  At one time I was GOing to embroider a different design on  all different colors of this handkerchief linen fabric so I would have lots of choices with different color outfits.  Well, you know about the saying........."The best laid plans......."  AND, I've still got a lot of different colors of this stuff too.  I'm not interested in finishing these now, so back in the bin they went.  I do use my one purse I embroidered my big fancy monogram on one side...out of purple & red fabrics.  I take it every once in a while for a Red Hat luncheon.

These are D9P blocks from another Tied Together Bee exchange we did this year.  We all made 9 patch blocks from our OLD 5" charm squares from a HUGE exhange of them we did  years ago.  (Thank goodness my old squares are about depleted, 'cause some of those were DEFINITELY UGLY fabrics.)  Most of the gals were very organized and color coordinated their squares in their 9 patch blocks.  NOT ME!  I just picked up whatever 5" charm that was next on the pile.  Scrappy is scrappy to me.  Then we cut them in fourths, and exchanged 20 sets, so we all would have some from everyone.  

When we decided to do this bee group project at the beginning of this year, one of the rules was we could only do the sewing on them at our bee meetings.  That was a fun rule 'cause we could see everyone's blocks before they cut them. 

I put this  D9P UFO quilt on my "to finish" list.  It will be a fun one!

Well...........how long has it been since you pulled out some UFO's to evaluate them??


Thanks for stopping by.

Welcome!

Hello and welcome to my Blog!

This is my first post and I would like to invite you to come on in, pull up a chair, grab a cup of coffee, and visit for a while.

It might take me a while to get the hang of this, but am determined to do it, so that's half the battle.

Lots of fun quilting/sewing projects going on right now and am starting 2009 out with finishing up some UFO'S and experimenting with others, working on my Ebay store listings, & making lists of everything I want to accomplish. I only hope that I can cross lots of things off that list as the days fly by.

So far for the year, I have completed one Star BOM, worked on the Angel BOM, completed an Easter wallhanging leftover from last year, made a new patchwork tote & my sister promptly claimed it, embroidered out more lacey snowflakes for an Ebay store order, and embroidered out 6 huge designs for Valentine throw pillows with 5 of them finished.

In the next couple days, I will be cutting out many fleece sock/slippers for all my family living in cold snowy Indiana and sewing them totally with the serger. Are any of you familiar with the fleece socks/slippers I am talking about??

That's enough for now.........
