UFO... Un-Finished Objects.
Almost all of us have them.. there are a RARE group of quilters that finish everything in a timely manner, then there is the majority of us who start new things and store others away... raise your hand if you can relate!
It's time for the annual UFO Challenge that my friends at American Patchwork & Quilting hosts each year and they have a GREAT Facebook group to get support, share and they live videos from the magazine offices, so fun!
They will pick a random number each month and you do that project!
So... deep breath...and decide... do you want to challenge yourself to finish or 'move forward' one project a month that has been sitting waiting it's turn?
ALL of us really do want to finish projects don't we? In the spirit of MAKING myself finish some projects by telling the world I am... .. I share a few of my UFO projects piled up...
1...2....3.... 18....
I personally need to do a re-evaluation of what I really want to finish, and what I want to move onto other people .
At the moment these projects seems to have gotten spread out around my studio .. and ... cough.. cough.. auxiliary storage areas.
That means.. I HAVE NO CLUE what I have.
Can you relate?
What I suggest is that we (the ROYAL WE) now select 12 projects that could be finished or greatly moved forward during a 4 week time span of the month it comes up in. And number them all.
Now maybe you don't have that many UFOs ....but... for me....it's kind of easy to find 12 like that. I actually have most of them as a top..
now.... next print the sheet and get ready to rock and roll those 12 projects into the LAND Of Finishes!
Leave me a comment and tell me what is your number one quilt you WANT to finish in 2018
