I have the analysis for March.
Total finished in March - 11
Average finished per person in March - .42
26% of us actually finished a UFO in March
Total UFOs finished so far this year - 63
That is an average of 2.42 UFOs finished per participant.
The highest number of UFOs finished is 10 by Debbie,
I have updated the emoticons.

I am determined to make at least ONE of each of the BOM blocks for this month. I set up the BOM thread here in the Stitching Room last year and kept up with it, but this year life got in the way. I have printed the patterns for 4 blocks and have one done so far. You can join in at any time. You keep the blocks so you can make them in any fabrics you choose. A great way to make a scrappy quilt from your stash.
For some reason making mini aprons (for those swaps I'm hosting) are taking up my time (and using up a wee bit of my stash). They are fun and addictive. Maybe some of you would like to join in on one of these mini apron swaps.

I am planning to work on my blocks tomorrow.
I also have to finish putting the easter square quilt together, then I'll post a picture.

I finished 6 blocks so far, 5 of which were UFOs from previous months this year. I posted the pictures for each of the BOM months. UFO blocks finished were 2 for Jan, 2 for Feb, and 1 for April. I also finished 1 for May, but that was a new block, so not a UFO.
Here are the blocks I finished

Another UFO I finished: I put the binding on my Route 66 quilt so we could take it in the motorhome.

Thank you Jill. I bought an entire set of 11 colors of a Patrick Lose fabric, so all colors have the same pattern in the fabric. I've had them for probably 8 years or so and haddn't gotten into them yet. I love the bright colors and the black background.

Yesterday I finished a red pair of crochet shoe/slippers. I have now been asked to make a blue pair. I'm hoping to head to the store next week and get what I need!

Not on my 2017 list but something I have been busy doing is sewing and stocking my Etsy Store, first item is seven sets of flannel baby blanket and burp cloths (two sets each).

Next up will be reversible dog bandannas that slip over the collar, in sizes small, medium, large and extra large.

Thank you Krista, I have even more that I will be sewing in the coming months, but not until I get some of the bandannas sewn. My goal is to take a variety of bandannas to Arizona for Memorial Weekend to use my daughter's dogs as models, of course it will cost me a few bandannas, but that is a small price to pay for free labor. Teehee!

I finished the top for a quilt made from the easter fabric 10" squares from last year, on Sunday. I posted a picture on the 10" square show case thread. Now for another UFO..

I finished the top of a boy quilt and the top of a Christmas Wonky Star Bedrunner (both posted on the 10" square showcase). The music 10" square top is half done. I hope to get more done today, but am also cleaning and getting ready to pack for our vacation. We leave Sunday.

Wow! You ladies have been busy.
It will be a while before I can sew, knit and crochet with any kind of dexterity. Mt left wrist is being held in a brace and I am unable to twist my wrist. I am working on a project and it is slow going. Plus I will be moving at the end of the month. The plan is to get some packers and movers and install me at the new place with a load of boxes to start unpacking what I can. I cannot lift much more than an empty soda can with my left arm.
I'll get the April results up soon.

Sorry to hear of your hand Marie. I've been battling arthritis in both hands. Right hand ia almost back to norm, still some pain. But, the left is still very painful and limits what I can do. Hate it! It is warm this week in the NW and I'm so grateful. Warmth does so much for mobility here. Can sew a bit, so I've been making burrito pillowcases for homeless kids. Quilting guild gives away 66 quilts each year to homeless kids. Now they can carry the quilt it a bright pillowcase. I didn't know how easy it is to build a pillowcase with this method. Made two for me. I am slowly working on UFOs and will post the jean skirt I made for Jubilee and daughter. Hers is a surprise birthday gift.
