UFO's

Did i make a New Years resolution to finish things this year ? No i didn't it was a resolution more to do with the what was left unfinished when my SIL passed away last year & I don't want my things to be left the same way but up until now i've not been able to get started. 

Yesterday was the start of the promise i made myself to "FINISH THINGS". Now if some of those things only make it to quilt tops then i'm happy with that as i know i'll get them quilted eventually. 

I started with these 2 small stitcheries from Gail Pan's 2019 BOM

Next up was another stitchery from the same BOM

Both of these finishes were the bonus projects.

Next was an older UFO. Not sure when i started these stitcheries but i put them aside with only 1 or 2 completed stitcheries then i dragged them out in 2019 i think to finish. The finished stitcheries were then put aside again with the fabrics to make the top.

I got the next border round cut before i stopped so it's ready to go today. Hopefully i'll get the top finished today.

Whilst going through the Christmas BOM to check if i'd any other stitcheries done that needed finishing off i found 1 that i'd traced but for some reason never stitched. Last night i made a start on it.
Happy Stitching,

Sadly, dealing with the loss of your SIL, makes you realise just how much you have - so Good Luck with the UFOs.....it can be a challenge...

YOu have done a great job sorting your SIL's things.... there were lots of amazing projects I thought you might have been wanting to finish.... I think getting some quick ones done is the way to go ....
