a month of UFOs?

Never Too Hot to Stitch!

For those who are participating in 2013: The Year of the Finished Project, don’t panic – your post is not due until the first Thursday of the month: that is, February 7.

My blog friend, Carrie, of A Passion for Applique, is participating in 2013: The Year of the Finished Project, and has also invited me to participate in her linky party, Nothing but UFOs.

Nothing But UFOs in 2013

She asks for a list of three quilting-related UFOs that will be worked on this month. Last month I declined to participate because I didn’t have three (quilting) UFOs that I was working on. But this month I do – so I’m in!

Here’s my three:

  1. Surprise for Older Grandson who will be three on 17 February. I can’t say any more here, it’s a surprise!
  2. Scrappy Log Cabin quilt – I need to find some fabric for a border so I can proceed.

  3. I need to turn some (or all) of my 99 Rainbow Improv blocks into a quilt (or quilts). My goal is one completed quilt by the end of the month.

Want to join in? Then pop over to Carrie’s blog and sign up (oh, yeah, there’s a prize on offer!)

Come back on Thursday to see my full list for February, how I went with my January goals and to share your story!
