I try to work on these 5 quilts until they are done. Their turn in the UFO closet is over, and, they need to be finished one way or another.
I decided, in November, not to add any more projects to the 5 quilt project for the end of the year. I wanted to start over in the new year. So, this is the last report for the year.
1. strip tease pattern- the top is done. It is going into the to be quilted closet.
2. mini churndash - I have faithfully made a block a day since I pulled it out of the ufo closet. And I have an idea, now, on how I want to make the quilt. I want to mix my batch of 6 inch churn dashes in with them, and eliminate that ufo at the same time. So, this will be the first 5 quilt project of 2024.
3. shirt anvil - I have finished all the blocks and have started on sashing. This is my one monthly goal, again, in December, to make it to the top stage.
4. sweet pea - is finished
5. patriotic sail boat kit. I used a random number generator to pick this UFO. But, I am not thrilled with finishing this. - I gave it away
 |
new number 4. for 2024 -Hollow nine that I have been making along with the rainbow scrap challenge this year.
New number 5. for 2024 is rick rack nines, a bonnie hunter quilt
summary for 2023 - I have one left to finish by the end of the year - anvil- and, then, I start over in 2024. It has been an interesting year. I have finished more quilts than I thought I would. I have reduced the number of UFOs, and, I haven't started any new quilts. I hope to start the year with a plan to finish more quilting and UFOs.

Your quilts are great! I'm especially interested in strip tease. Is it a pattern that is still available? I'd appreciate any information. As well, for sweet pea. Thank you in advance. dfb@cox.net
