2015 Quilting Summary

Like many bloggers, the end of the year is a good time to share a look back at my quilt production for the year. 2015 was an especially good year for me on working through some of my UFOs. I made great progress on several UFOs, assembling 9 UFO quilt tops and completely finishing two UFO quilts. I also finished four other quilts and 5 tops that were started in 2015.

For the past few years, one of my quilting goals has been to finish more projects than I began in that year. For 2015, I started many more new quilt projects than in recent years, a total of 21 throughout the year. A few were ongoing projects, some were started in classes, and others were test blocks to see if I wanted to move ahead with an idea or pattern. 

Of the unfinished new projects I started in 2015, there are two that I hope to turn into finished tops in the next couple of weeks, and two or three others will become on-going projects for the Rainbow Scrap Challenge 2016. There are only a couple of new projects from 2015 that are joining the UFO collection.

  1. You had a very successful 2016, lots of pretty quilts. Moving those UFOs towards completion has to feel really good. Wishing you an equally productive 2016.

  2. Awesome quilts! You did a great job in getting many of your UFO's completed or moved to a higher state of completion. Good luck in the coming year and looking forward to viewing you accomplishments.
