2011 UFO Quilt Challenge from Patchwork Times

I'm joining the world of blogs to participate in Judy L's 2011 UFO Challenge.  I am a rookie computer user and blogger but I have been quilting for 40+ years.  My first quilt was a Cathedral Window done completely by hand.  My college roommate's Aunt Rose was making one and she got me started.  I owe her for the joy I get from quilting.

My home is currently undergoing a major renovation.  My husband and I are living in the back yard in our RV.  98% of my quilting stuff is packed and in storage and will be unavailable until sometime in February. However, I really want to participate in this challenge.

Luckily, I have 3 UFO's here in the RV so whatever number is chosen, I will start with one of them.

As with most of you, I had no trouble coming up with 12 projects to put on my list.  I know there are many more but this will be a great start.  I will add photos of those on hand when I fugure more out about this blog.

  1. Judy, I have also entered the blogging world to participate in Judy's challenge. I've spent way too much time trying to get the UFO Challenge Button from Judy L onto my blog so I am quitting for now. I'm probably doing something really stupid. Good luck with your blog. I'll be looking forward to your pics.

  2. I figured out the button thing. Go to http://tinyurl.com/24cczcj for help.

    My Christmas Pineapple Blossom quilt is a Bonnie Hunter pattern on Quiltville.com

    It would be fun to see your house renovation progress on your blog also.
