This is a UFO that I have finished. I had started a corner-to-corner shawl when I first heard of the techniques.
The shawl has been made from all kinds of left over yarn.
This is the top edge with fuzzy eyelash yarn.
This is more of the middle of the shawl. I really like it.

Thank you. I want to wear it to church because it is always cold in the place I sit.

Marie I love your shawl so much! The mix up of the leftover yarns is so appealing to me.

Thank you. I had a large amount of DK and very thin two-ply leftovers. I paired them up to create this thus destashing 2 yarns at the same time.

Grace your Scotty dog towel is so cute! Marie, I am intrigues at your beautiful shawl made from scraps with the new to me, fuzzy eyelash yarn. It turned out very pretty with all those rich warm colors.

Karen -- Congratulations on finishing UFOs! It's amazing how much you can get done at retreats.
This month the quilt guild drew number 11. This was a stack of blocks I found in a drawer; can't even remember when I made them, but here is the top I made:

That is amazing Karen! Ii can't wait to get all of my fabric UFOs done! They fill a bin! I have gotten some curtains finished for a nursery. Very happy to have those out of my sewing room! As I clean through my sewing room again, I am finding more of the little critters to add to the stuffed bin. I think that I may be working on them forever (I sure do hope not). Getting out a needlework piece to finish next.

Great job, Judith.
So far at my guild, due to all the traveling Ed and I have been doing, I’m behind #s 10, 2, 3, and 4. Lol! I’m trying to catch up this month with at least a couple.
One is reorganizing/cleaning my creativity/quilting room, and it is almost done. Between cleaning and organizing, I have done 13 blocks from a 2014 black/white strip swap, with 9 more half done. I’ll post pictures when I get a few more done. I also have a couple more projects pulled to work on, too. As long as Ed doean’t pull an impromptu trip, I may just make it. LOL!
Farmgirl hugs,

Please keep the lid off that bin Nancy. Those little buggers get up to mischief if left in there too long. Compromising their privacy will slow them down but not stop the shenanigans.
