Shelly over at Prairie Moon Quilts is hosting the 4th annual Final Countdown to get us prepared for the new year. Saturday’s challenge is:
Locate your UFO that’s closest to being done, and do something about it.
Since my sewing space still looks like an art gallery, I had doubts that I could make this happen. I know exactly where the UFO closest to being finished is. It’s on the shelf, but the big ironing board is leaning up against that shelf and there is a quilt hanging in front of it. Then I remembered a UFO with easier access. The 2006 Mystery quilt that I quilted on the 17th. It is still in the quilting bag tucked under my cutting board with the zipper leaders still attached.
I’ve removed the zipper leaders. I assume that counts as “something” – although I think the idea is to actually finish it. So I will bounce back and forth between putting away the serving dishes from the party, laundry, binding the quilt and the 2nd Countdown Task (to be announced) until I get it all done.
Yes, I think that counts as something. Finding it counts too! I am ready to get to my sewing after the holidays are done. It will be nice to have my quilt zone to myself again.
