Judy L's UFO Challenge

Stashbuster WEBRING Topic of the Week.

What is your oldest UFO? The oldest UFO that I made with my own two hands is my King size log cabin. I have purchased 4 tops that are from the 70's or before, 3 of which I plan to quilt. They are the "oldest" but not of my doing ;).

Why did it become a UFO? When I stopped working on this quilt it lacked the borders. I can't specifically recall why I put it down. I am sure something else came along. Then the intended recipients divorced. There was no urgency to get back to it at that point. I didn't know anyone else with a king bed!

What are my plans to finish it? I sent it off to be quilted by my friend Beth in MD. She finished quilting it last night and is sending it back so I can bind it and send it to someone for a birthday present.

How many UFOs do you have? I have 9. 4 I purchased from someone else. 2 I made just last year. With the addition of borders to two tops all my UFOs will be in the quilting stage.

I thought the quilt looked familiar! Wow, it's wonderful that you found a home for it. The quilting on it is beautiful. Thanks for sharing!

Only 9 UFO's - I can't even count how many I have. You must feel great to have so many done.

If I only had 9 UFOs I would definitely be doing the happy dance. You go girl!!! Hope your pups are feeling better.

I count tops as ufos also. 9 is a small amount compared to some blogs I have visited. :)
