I like calling my UFOs PhD (Projects Half Done) because when I tell someone I am working on my PhD it sounds more important. I have so many PhD and I'm always finding (starting?) more. Most of my projects are fabric related - that is my media of choice.

Post a list and when you finish a project you can add the date and post a picture. We all like to admire the talents of our farmgirl sisters and encourage others to complete their projects.

How many projects can you finish each month? Let's try for 2 a month. Maybe you can do more?

Just to be clear. I did not make the pillow top. I picked it out of a Traveling Craft Box. Another Farmgirl make it. I just decided I needed it to be my back pillow at my desk chair. I am grateful that a Farmgirl made that possible for me.

Marie, your pillow is beautiful with those vibrant colors!

Linda, you sure can keep a busy schedule at your sewing machine. I don't know how you manage to do so much and it is all beautiful!

I have 8 more wall pockets ready to sew - they are cut out; also have 12 more kitchen scrubbies ready to sew, 4 more Dish Drainer quilts, 8 more Christmas kitchen boas, 6 more cats and owl kitchen boas, and 8-10 more microwave bowl potholders - all cut out ready to sew. As they are finished I will post pics and add them to the for sale items on MJF Marketplace. LOL!

Vanessa, your dog bed is cute. Hopefully they come around soon.

Linda, your blocks are really neat looking. I love the design.

Nice rug Marie. It's neat to think it came from t-shirts.

Marie, a rug made out of tshirt yarn, pretty cool. they do make the anti slip liners you put underneath the rugs, they work pretty good. I just don't remember what it is called. The salvage block is neat too Linda. I have a small basket started of salvage. Vanessa hope your dogs like your new cover soon!!. Looks great.

I like your rug, Marie. Please tape it down. I have a knitted rug I made and it is super slippery on the floor. It is the cat's rug now, because I almost slipped and fell more than once.

I finished the rug made of t-shirt yarn.



I will now be starting to work on a beaded banner kit. It has an amaryllis on it, and is large enough to hang on a door.

1) Make a rug out of t-shirt yarn and process the t-shirts when I need more yarn. **** DONE ****
2) Finish mending Lowell's winter coat - all that is left is the lining and I need to repair it so that it doesn't rip out.
3) Finish a granny square cardigan - all the squares are made. I have to make the sleeves and the back and then sew it together.

Today I went "off list" - as usual. We are having a block exchange in my quilt group, and Thursday we have to sign up. I made 3 samples of my block today - now to write the instructions for those who are participating. LOL! My block is a selvage spider web block. Here are 2 of the 3 I made.

Crafting crafting crafting, what to do first. lol I did get a few things ready for the quilter, 3 table toppers. I have to get to town to get quilt backing and batting for the quilt. Hopefully when it is on sale. The shopping bags are great Karen. Keep up the good work everyone and have fun in the process.

I love the acronyms Debbie. I am pretty sure all my stuff is categorized as STABLE lol!

Linda, those turned out great. The boa fabric is cute.

Really cute bags Karen!

I agree Debbie. I am still working on my 2 large projects so I feel like I am not accomplishing much. Especially since I haven't had that much time to work on them.

I feel the same Debbie, lol. I am working on the first project on my list, but it’s slow going.
