One of the first blogs I started following was Barabara's Civil War BOW about 3 years ago. I used to get up early on Saturday mornings to read it before my Q@F group came. I had fully intended to make that quilt and the next one Votes for Women. I collected all the patterns and gathered fabrics from my stash, but somehow never got started on either one. I have a whole bin of Jane Austin fabrics from a class I had taken July 2006 that was called Shades of Pemberly. It was not so easy making those awkward diamonds from the Jane Austin Coverlet. That is a UFO. I am tempted to pull it out again and try to figure out why I did not complete it. However, Dear Jane waits so patiently.

ReplyDeleteNothing ventured, nothing gained , as they say! ;)
ReplyDeleteQuilters are such sharing people: we share ideas, tricks, patterns ....... no wonder we all have so many ufos (not that I am complaining, they make great insulation, stacked all around my studio walls).
ReplyDeletethey do make great insulation . . . thanks for sharing
DeleteI love those fabrics and plan to do this block from Barbara Brackman. I have a friend who got rid of a bunch of her UFOs by just taking all the finished blocks and making orphan block quilts. They looked really neat and cleared out her cupboards.
