COUNTING UFOS

 I've done really well this year finishing UFO projects.  I've finished all 12 of the ones for the Quilting Mayhem UFO Challenge.  So, today I thought I'd see how many I have left in the UFO containers hiding under the longarm.

I found 13 more quilt tops that need backing and to be quilted.

Here's one of them.  It's a Christmas quilt started in December of 1994.  It's a round robin - each border pieced by a different person, I provided the some of the fabrics to keep it consistent and made the Feathered Star in the middle to start it.  Everyone did such an exceptional job of adding to it. 

I'm a bit intimidated about doing the quilting for this one - all those open areas deserve something special.

ROUND ROBIN FINISHED

 I got around to finishing the binding on the old Round Robin quilt.

It's finished!  

I think this is number 5 for the year.

ROUND ROBIN QUILTED

 I made the backing for this old Round Robin quilt top yesterday.  Today I loaded it all onto the longarm. I picked an easy pantograph and got it started.  More than half was quilted when I joined in with the Brave Patch Monday Sewcial group.

I finished the quilting and got it off the machine.

This quilt top was probably made in the early 1990's.   A round robin is a group project where each participant adds a row to the central 'block' and then passes it onto the next person. It goes back to the person that made the central block.
