I told you I was going to change this post to reflect the progress that I have made on the 26 Projects List<\/a>. I really only have two “really old” UFOs left on my list – the Pointillist Palette and the Tarts Come to Tea. The others are old, but they have a different feel to me. I may be kidding myself, but that is what is in my head right now.<\/p>\n

I am really pleased that I finished the Attack of the Hexies top and am feeling like I have made a huge leap forward.<\/p>\n

Still WIPs<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Aqua-Red Sampler<\/a> \u2013 Frances<\/a> and I are stalled. She has been talking about getting back to it. I am thinking about the next tutorial., because I can write it without her, though I am not that motivated.<\/li>\n
  2. The Tarts Come to Tea<\/a>: I still haven\u2019t worked on this since April 2011, though, periodically, I think<\/em> about working on it.<\/li>\n
  3. Pointillist Palette #4: Fourth is a series of 6 quilts; needs tiny square patches sewn together. I still haven\u2019t worked on this, though, every once in a while I think about using some of the squares as leaders and enders.<\/li>\n
  4. See<\/a>: needs satin stitching. Small, also a possibility for finishing before the end of the year, though with all the cutting I have done recently, perhaps not so much.<\/li>\n
  5. Self Portrait<\/a>: started in 2006 at a class at Quilting Adventures<\/a> in Richmond, Virginia. I like the piece, but don\u2019t know where to go from where I am. Mouth? Hair? The attitude I need to have is that I can\u2019t ruin it; there is always more fabric. Possibility for abandonment.<\/li>\n
  6. Under the Sea<\/a>: class project; like the design, but not the colors much. Possibility for abandonment. I have to face reality.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Ready for Quilting

    1. New:* Wonky 9 Patch<\/a>: needs quilting and binding. I am still thinking about quilting this myself and I am thinking about it more and more. I am wondering how far apart I can quilt it so that it has some drape. (Not on original list)<\/li>\n
    2. Infinity blocks<\/a>: blocks sewn together into a quilt top, borders on. Back and binding made; at the quilter.<\/li>\n
    3. Spiderweb<\/a>: Top is together, binding is made. This is at the quilter.<\/li>\n
    4. New:* FOTY 2012<\/a>: top, finished. Back and binding are complete; at the quilter.<\/li>\n
    5. New:*Star Sampler<\/a>: Top finished, back and binding finished; at the quilter. (not on original list)<\/li>\n
    6. New:*Fresh Fruit<\/a>: Top finished, back and binding finished; at the quilter. (not on original list)<\/li>\n
    7. Flower Sugar Hexagons \/ Attack of the Hexies<\/a> – Top finished 1\/12\/2014: I finished the top, back and the binding on January 12. It is ready to be taken to the quilter.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      In the Finishing Process<\/strong><\/p>\n

      None in January.<\/p>\n

      In Process<\/strong>
      \nI decided that I had better put in an \u2018In Process\u2019 category. The difference, at least in my mind, between \u2018In Process\u2019 and \u2018UFO\u2019 is that I am actively working on a project that is “In Process.”<\/p>\n
