I am changing up the 26 Projects post in 2025. Instead of posting all the projects every month, I am going to post new projects finished in that month. Then the year end roundup will be a true round up. This will also make the posts shorter.
Finished January 2025 Quilt Projects
Finished (for me!) January Donation Quilts
As you know, I don’t quilt much. I really enjoy the collaborative effort of making a top and allowing someone else to quilt it. Thus, the quilts below are mostly tops, but I will include a finished quilt once someone else finishes it for the group.
Finished January Bags and Small Projects
This category covers bags, toys, aprons and knitting as well as other non-quilt projects.
January Projects Ready for Quilting / In the Quilting Process
- Nothing at the moment
January Projects In the Finishing Process
- Nothing now
All the WIPs from all Time
WIPs are projects on which I am working. This means that I am past the cutting out of pieces stage, some sewing has taken place.
- La Passacaglia – I am working on the border, but need to work more and harder
- Old Town – several clues finished
- Superbloom tote using Hindsight fabric –started!
Cut Out & Stopped
Still UFOs
I still have UFOs. Who doesn’t, after all? A project in the ‘UFO’ category means I am stalled, it hasn’t been worked on in awhile or it is waiting its turn to be worked on. The list is a lot shorter and the projects are newer, for the most part.
I am annoyed that some of these are still UFOs. I have to give myself credit for completing some of them last year.
- Handbag Sampler – I found the blocks! I found them in a bin I thought I had thoroughly searched! I also found the fabrics carefully stored together. Hooray!!
- Self Portrait: started in 2006 at a class at Quilting Adventures in Richmond, Virginia. After a brief burst of inspiration, I am stalled on this again. As one of my oldest (I am pretty sure) UFOs, I put it on my blog and out into the Twitterverse and Diane suggested that I not consider this as a self portrait. I think that strategy is a great idea. I am now trying to think of a new persona for her.
- Serendipity Lady – I am still planning to take this piece to be framed. It might need a bit of quilting first.
- Fabric of the Year 2020
- Fabric of the Year 2021 – I may combine 2020 and 2021 into a COVID edition.
- Fabric of the Year 2022 – yes, I added this one to the list, but this is the last one I plan to do.
- Chain Link – have the pattern, have some squares, but haven’t started sewing yet.
