February UnFinished Object is 95% done!!!

If you read my 2011 UFO List you will see that I listed a Bargello Purse that needed completed.

It is almost done, all that needs done is to whip stitch the handles to the body!



This is a pattern from Figure Flattering Quiltwear, it is the same company I got my pattern for my Bargello Jacket.

January 2011 Completions

Inaddtion to the finishing of my first UFO of 2011 I have also completed some others projects. 

Unfortunately I can't post pictures.  They are patterns that I have been testing.  I have to wait for the ok by the designers before posting pictures.  In January, I completed 3 lap quilt tops.  They all used fabric from my stash.  One was scarlet and gray, one was made of fish fabric and the last one was made of brights.  I also completed my first paper piecing project in the form of 2 BOM's (block of the months).  The 2 BOM's may have to be made again, because I think they are too small.  With paper piecing that you print the foundation off of a computer you have to be careful with the size. 

I hope I have as productive of a February.

My first UFO of 2011 is completed!!

If you read my 2011 UFO List you will see that I listed my Gerber DayZ Chain quilt.  It needed a hanging sleeve and binding.  Well as of today it is finished!  And tomorrow it will be taken to the Lake Farm Parks as an entry in their 2011 Quilt show.

New Year - new look for my Blog

I would appreciate if you would leave a comment on the new look of my blog.  Let me know if you like the format and use of color.

As you can see I added the winning score from the 2011 Sugar Bowl in which my Buckeyes beat the Arkansas Razorbacks.

I have also added a few gadgets, including Popular Posts and My Blog List.

I finished up another quilt I was testing yesterday, and hope to make progress on another one this weekend.

I also have to get the binding done on my Gerber Day Z quilt by Thursday so it can get entered in the Lake Farm Parks Quilt Show.

As you can see I will be busy for the next few days.
