LOL! I've been working on 5 different projects at once. I get bored easily. Crocheting scrubbies, fabric wall pockets, deciding on a quilt block to use for my guild's next swap by making one to see how I like it (not a UFO/PhD), making Christmas cloth books, and making some crayon roll-ups for the sale at the church (Hasn't been added yet to UFO-Phd list, but will be).

Good morning ladies, I am happy to say I have ‘started’ on the first item on my list, lol. That’s big progress for me! I will post before and after pics when I finish.

Way to go Linda! I think I will stick with just my 2 for now lol! I need to stay motivated and not be discouraged with everything I have going on. I have been working on my UFOs for at least a half hour each night. I can't wait for my next one to be completed.
Wahoo Wanda! You got this!
Great job Karen! You are off to a great start!

I have two more UFOs done.
I completed the binding on my Halloween wall hanging. First time at blind stitching an entire project. It’s not so good but I still did it! :)
And I also completed a snowman wall hanging.

Love your ufo's Karen. They look great. I am working on a quilt top that I was given. It is a sampler, as there is 9 blocks 16x16 all a different pattern. I am putting it together with strips of material that was included/left over from the blocks. Have to do it randomly as there was not enough of one single fabric.

Hay there. As soon as my lunch is over I'm heading into the abyss that is my studio. I don't yet know what I will find but my goal is to find a project to work on. I have a strategy! I will move/touch/see 3, only 3, projects and pick one of those 3 to tackle. I have to start somewhere and its a bit overwhelming in there so I need a plan before venturing inside. If you don't hear from me within a few days then please send a rescue squad, preferrable a cute one. Have a great day!

I am in love and impressed at all these wonderful UFOs that got finished!! Beautiful, all of them!! It does really feel good to finally finish a project that has been waiting for a long time. Plus, there is something very rewarding about finishing up your project and being able to use it.

That's a great idea, Daizy. Today I have touched 2 projects and worked on both of them. LOL! Need to go back in there after a rest for a bit.

Beautiful work Karen. You are doing great and knocking so many UFOs out!
Really pretty quilt top, Michele.
I was able to cross off 2 items off my list. I had it written down that I needed to crochet a St. Patrick's and Easter garland for my mom. When I spoke with her on the phone she said she already had them. I somehow forgot that I already made them and never crossed it off my master list. I am so glad to be down 2 more.
