I have two wallhangings for a friend ready to go and one partially quilted and I will try to get to those this weekend. I also have my Be My Neighbor quilt pin basted. However, I am battling a cold and decided to try to knock off some small projects towards my goal of completing 52 of them this year!
First up is this UFO from 2009. It was a free BOM from Gail Pan and was revealed in Sept. 2009 called Christmas Wishes. I had been embroidering on the blocks off and on over the years. The square were 6". I had based my floss colors on this fabric and had the blocks with the fabric and this is what I saw when I opened it up. One block just needed a bit more stitching and they were done!

The last wallhanging I spray basted today was this little basket quilt. The quilt was started by my friend Debi and I mentioned it in this post. I pieced a back out of the leftovers. It's my way to honor Debi and the blue print that had belonged to her grandmother.

Your small projects don't look so easy. I love the one you are finishing of Deb's. The Blessings quilt looks really fun. Glad you found less to do on it than you thought. You'll be busy quilting this weekend. If Quilting can make us feel better - Quilt on!
Love your CHristmas wishes embroidery done in blues!
Oh gosh, I have those Christmas Wishes blocks complete somewhere. Now I will have to find them. Looks like you have a great plan. The little quilt of Debi's is full of sweet memories and a treasure for sure.
Have a great day doing what you love to do.
Its gonna be fun watching you push through your ufo's! Man I wish I had a smidgen of your energy. :)
Love those embroidered blocks. So pretty.
