My UFO situation is fairly dire and we got a bill for DS's school fees for 2011 last week. We're still picking up our jaws off the floor. Let's just say they're a little more than we expected!
So...I'm guessing quilt classes and fabric shopping will be one of the first things to cut back on.
I'm going to do the odd class and I still need to finish collecting Sandi Henderson FQs for 2 specific quilt but other than that it's stash shopping and UFO finishing!

I'm not totally certain which UFOs will be targeted or how many. If I'm not realistic, I'll get all disappointed and discouraged.
Here's what I have so far:
Handbag quilt - needs unquilting, requilting, binding and test washing
Aqua and Chocolate quilt - needs basting, quilting, binding and test washing
Lizzie Mae's Medallion quilt - finish centre applique, piece blocks and assemble top (not
quilting this as yet) (pic is of original pattern)
Max's Dinosaurs - needs quilting finished, binding and test wash
Max's car quilt - applique blocks finished, assemble top, basting, binding, test washing. I'm using this pattern by The Country Quilter
My fabrics are quite different. I first saw this quilt in a magazine made up by Magic Patch Quilting which is where I bought the pattern and mine looks more like theirs.
Max's Monster Trucks Tote Bag - finish cutting fabric and make it! The pic below is the original pattern by Natalie Ross that I'm using. It will obviously be made up of non-girly fabrics given the recipient!!
DaChintzy Code Mystery Quilt - finish piecing (not quilting at this stage)
Pinwheel Sampler - finish remaining blocks by hand or machine and assemble quilt top (ideally quilt and bind but probably too ambitious!)
Aster Manor Sampler - finish remaining blocks by hand and assemble top (ideally quilt and bind but probably too ambitious!)
You have really wonderful UFO's! I'll be eager to see which lovely thing gets your time and attention first.
ReplyDeleteI'm in the "cut the fabric budget' boat as well. Keep reminding myself there are plenty of projects in the house, but still it is hard to resist the siren song of all the new fabrics coming out!
