An online quilt group that I belong to has started their 2009 UFO Challenge! For this challenge, I was to pick 15 of my UFO's and complete them by June 30th! The hard part was choosing just 15! I'm sorry to admit I have many more than 15 unfinished projects. But I have been chipping away at my stack of UFO's over the past 2 years, and it is getting smaller (although hard to tell!!). In addition, I've been trying to use up lots of fabric in my stash...you know, to make room for all of the new pretties coming out! The blocks in the photo are from one of my UFO's. It is a scrappy pineapple block using up some of my blues, greens, and white "leftovers". I am always amazed at how many quilt tops I can make from a little drawer of scraps. Just doesn't seem to make much of a difference in the volume of scraps...I'm convinced they must be reproducing in the bin...or something! Do you have UFO's to complete?
