Well January's UFO (#6) is almost done.  Top is all together and I have picked out the backing fabric (stash of course!).  Binding is also made ;o)

January:
#6 Quilt: Christmas Lights: Top is together, binding made, backing made and on the quilting machine to quilt.


February: 
#10 Jo Morton Club Quilt:  This is a small quilt that I need to finish hand quilting and then bind.  DONE!


March:
#1  Bunny Hill's Bitsy Button and Friends:  All but 2 blocks were hand appliqued.  Need to assemble top and learn how to do prairie points for one of the borders.
Top is put together, but need to fix a few prairie points that I didn't like how they came together in the corners....put away for now.


April:
#4 Homestead Hearth's Olde Hickory BOM:  A few blocks have been made...most are in those cute HH bags. Blocks were made in Blue Ridge during June...top is complete...binding made...need to quilt


May:
#9 Sparkling Gemstones/Jelly Roll Quilt:  I had to laugh when I went back to take a picture.  I could not remember what this quilt was and had to google the name so I could figure it out.  Top made at a stitch in and need to add borders/quilt/bind.  The leaf print is the backing


June:
#8 Silver Thimbles' Scrappy Nines:  Top made.  Need to quilt and bind.




#2 Morning Star Swap:  Needs pieced borders.  When I put this on the UFO list, it was not put together at all.  The pieces were made for the stars though.  It started as this!
#3 Buggy Barn's Believe:  We won't even say how long it has been in this state of "blocks made".  Need to assemble top and add pieced borders.


#5 Jan Patek Spencer Museum BOM: All the blocks are made (hand appliqued).  Need to assemble top with sashing/stars/borders.  I am going to hand quilt this one this year. 

#7 Roll Roll Cotton Boll: Much progress has been made since I placed this quilt on the UFO list! With the 5 snow days from work, I was able to accomplish a lot on this quilt.  Here is a picture of it during the process. 



#11 Nickel Quilt:  Hopscotch with Fandango:  This quilt is only cut out and needs everything done! Quilt top was put together and finished in Blue Ridge in June.  Binding made...need to quilt


#12 Primitive Gatherings' Gordy's Gang: This is really a wool wall hanging that I started from a kit and need to finish before next Halloween!
