April UFOs Update – PHD Driven

We have joined Quilting Gail in a quest to complete our PHD (projects half done) certificate.  Here is the list of our 12 UFOs that we shared back in December with links showing the unfinished project or photos.  This should work out to one finish per month, in theory anyway!

    I am feeling so free as in I am not worried about any UFO’s or WIPs this year. I gave myself permission to just do what I want for the whole stinking year!! So far I am really liking this idea, haha. There will be time later for finishing the UFO’s. BUT I am glad you are working on yours as I enjoy seeing them;)

  7. chrisknits says:

    I ignore my WIPs and just keep creating new ones!!! I started the year with 6 tops waiting to be made into wall hangs and now have 8 items waiting to be quilted! The hole is getting deeper.

  8. Shannon Fleming says:

    Good work ladies. It does feel so good to get UFOs finished. I’ve been working on a few as well. Do you have a pattern for the jigsaw puzzle quilt?
