This is my "retreat bag". I've been keeping a couple of projects in here, and dragging them with me to each retreat I go on, in an effort to make some progress on these. In there are Northern Reflections, which just needs borders, Kaffe stripes, which has a ton of cutting left to do (and my hand hurts just thinking about it), and at least one piece of Merry Mayhem's mystery I see lying on top. Next week, when I head out to my retreat, I'll pack this bag up along with my sewing machine, and I'm set for projects for the weekend. Maybe I'll toss in houses & stars (a paper piecing project) just to round out the package. It helps me avoid starting a new project at the retreat because I can't figure out what to take :)It's time for this month's UFO roundup, so here goes.
At the beginning of March I had the following projects:
10 in progress
7 planned but not started
20 to be quilted
7 to be bound
I finished 5, started 3 new, and moved a number through the process this past month. I also realized that I overestimated how many of my disappearing hour-glass quilties actually got quilted. One has been bumped back into the "to be quilted" list, since I found the flimsy today. As of today, I now have:
12 in progress (oops, that's a step backwards)
7 planned but not started
18 to be quilted
5 to be bound
5 completed this past month (year to date - 16 finishes)
I seem to keep making new "UFOs in training", but so far this year the finishes outstrip the starts, so progress is being made in the right direction.
The detailed list for this month, so I can keep track of where I am :)
