2014 UFOs and Other Stuff

For the Last 3 years I have worked at finishing UFOs that had been on the shelf for years and I have succeded each month, except for the year my mom passed away.

I am very happy with the progress I have made. I was always using someone elses blog as an "answer to" way of staying honest and it felt good to report to someone other than my self. I thank Judy Laquidera for introducing me to getting UFOs done committments. She's a very talented and motivating lady.

This year I am doing on my own. I don't know how to post cutesy buttons on my blog yet. Maybe one day I will explore that subject but for now I'm keeping it simple and just posting each month here on my blog what I want to finish for each month.

In January I want to: 1. finish 2 blocks for my Merry Merry Snowman quilt, 2. finish my Too Many Men snowman quilt, get it quilted and bound maybe. 3, Get 2 Christmas gifts done for next Christmas. 

So let's see how I do.

3RD DECEMBER UFO DONE!!!

This is my 3rd UFO for December! Another block for my Merry Merry Snowman quilt is finished. All but the eyes adn buttons on the scarf, ear muffs and door knob. I want to quilt this quilt before I add anymore embellishments. Still toying with the idea of just using french knots for eyes. We'll see.



Two December UFOs Done! One to Finish!

                                                This is my blue Snowman Quilt all done!

   This is the back of my Blue Snowman quilt all quilted and bound!

This is my Redwork Snowmen BOM all put together and ready to quilt!

DECEMBER UFOs

My 3 UFOs for December are the following:

I want to finish binding this snowman quilt.

I also want to add another block to my Merry Merry Snowen quilt top.

I will also try to put together the last row of my embroidered snowmen to get it ready to quilt. A picture of it has already been posted on my blog.

UFOs FOR NOVEMBER DONE!

                                        Snowman quilt all quilted! I will add binding as a December
                                         project!

                                              This is Novembers Redwork Santa all done!

I not only got one block done for Merry Merry Snowman but two!!! I still have to add their eyes and buttons but will wait to quilt it first. 

NOVEMBER UFOs TO HOPEFULLY ACCOMPLISH.....

                                      1.    I will quilt and maybe bind my snowman quilt

                                         2.  I will embroider my November Red Snowman Block

3. I want to add another block to my Merry Merry Snowman quilt top.

OCTOBER UFOs DONE!

The first done was my grandson Joshs wedding quilt. He and Tessa will be married November 11th of this year! Need to make a label for it.

 

The second and simplest for me was the redwork snowman! Just needs to have its borders.

OCTOBER UFOs TO FINISH ( I HOPE)

I want to put all the blocks together for Josh and Tessas quilt.
This is a big job for me so I am only posting 2 projects for October.

I want to embroider the October block for this snowman quilt

                                                                  

SEPTEMBER UFOS!

3rd row of snowman wall hanging done!

                                          Blocks for Josh and Tess's quilt top done! All 56 of them!
                                     Didn't get to the blocks for the other snowman quilt. Maybe 
                                     I'll have time in October.

SEPTEMBER UFOs TO BE COMPLETED....(I HOPE!)

I will put together 3 more of my snowmen blocks! This will be so cute!



Then, want to make another try at making at least one block for this quilt.



And last but certainly not least, I will cut all the pieces for Josh & Tessa's wedding quilt.
