UFO #9 is a done deal!

A short post today to let you know that another one bites the dust! Well, not literally, but at least it's a fully finished "done done" quilt. This is another baby quilt, made quite simply with Chenille Squares and 1/4 square triangles.
This first photo shows a detail of the blocks and the quilting, the second photo shows the whole quilt. This quilt was another of my own design. Who said things had to be complicated? :)

This is such a soft and cuddly quilt. I just love it! I hope the new Mum does too....

UFO #34 is off the list!

Ta Da....... Here it is! My very first UFO finish of the year, as listed in the pile of projects way back in late Dec '08. This is a cot/baby quilt, completed just yesterday for a friend whose baby was born in February. It is now a "done-deal" and packaged up ready to give away. Unfortunately the photo doesn't show the lovely variegated thread that I used for the quilting and the rose design that is all over it, but no matter, it's the overall effect that counts. And the fact that I have completed one project in the list of many. Now let's see, what will come up next on the list.......... I wonder...........

My Loyal Subjects...

Well, it arrived, and then left in a great hurry, my reign as UFO Queen on Stashbusters. While I have managed to begin and finish a few projects this year, I haven't actually completed an UFO that I listed at the start of they year. For this I had the dubious honour of being Queen of UFOs for one week. This experience has humbled me and made have to confess to a fellow Stashbuster that I have waaaayyy to many projects on the go. Hopefully I will have some photos in a few days of two completed quilts, that is "done-done" with labels and binding........

So, to my loyal subjects, from your humble queen, may your quilting projects become usable quilted objects....... :)
