Had one in a floor frame when my husband and I split up. Took it out, sold the frame, never did much sewing again until last November when I started back with a sampler ( needed finished ) and that big quilt...I guess that they were UFO's :) LOL they were about 12 yrs old! :) I did finish them and am so glad that I did and that I got back to sewing though I still am pretty 'green' at most skills.

Sounds so much better when you say you have to go work on your PhDs.:-) Even your arrangement of UFOs is pretty! There is also another linky (Finish Along 2014) that has some great ladies to help encourage you to finish your quilts in whatever manageable way you see fit. The signup for this quarter ends today but there was still time when I just checked. http://thelittlestthistlecraftshop.blogspot.co.uk/2014/01/finish-along-2014-quarter-1-now-open.html. I'm looking forward to see what you do with all of those beautiful tops!<br /><br />http://www.busyneedle.chElita@Busy Needle Quiltinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10833568994883621755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5062949516022413170.post-83324008186760782192014-01-17T09:42:35.177-05:002014-01-17T09:42:35.177-05:00Love your quilts.

A current project would be a WIP or a WISP (work in slow progress). The distinction makes me feel better. ;) You have such a beautiful variety here. Have fun working on these.

So have no fear, Debra, I will be supporting you with encouragement as you work on each of these UFO's. I know first hand how nice it is to receive encouraging comments on your posts when you link them up to Let's Bee Social, so I also ENCOURAGE you to do a little visiting to some of the other linkers' blogs and offer encouragement and support to them this week, too.
