Finished UFO's and New Project from Grandma's Red Needle

It's not often I have two posts in one week, but I'm excited to share some (quilting) news with you!

First, I have some finished UFO's!

The Scrappy Christmas Quilt was finished in April, but never got around taking photos

I've used red, green, grey, white and gold scraps (I almost ran out of greens!)

For the back I've chosen a beautiful poinsettia fabric

The stocking kit was given to me a couple of years ago (I never buy kits). This UFO was also one of the 'laying on the bench next to the table ...

Time to Count UFO's - Again! from Grandma's Red Needle

It's that time of the (new) year again; counting UFO's! I'm not cheating, I did count my UFO's at the end of 2020 and I have not added more! lol I must admit I was a bit surprised after I counted 15 UFO's! I thought I had less! After all, we are not real quilters if we don't have UFO's, isn't it?!

I have signed up for the APQ and Quiltsy Team's UFO Challenge 2021. If you would like to join the UFO Challenge at APQ, click here for more info ...

APQ's UFO Challenge 2020 - April Finish from Grandma's Red Needle

As I have mentioned earlier, I focused on UFO's during the lock-down. No I-net, dead computer and stuck inside, quilting kept me sane. Thank goodness the sewing machine didn't act up! I didn't feel for taking photos after a quilt was finished and now I have lots to catch up.

Full / Double bed size quilt; 79.50 x 95.50 inches / 202 x 242.5 cm (Pic taken on bed measuring 47 x 79 inches / 120 x 200 cm)

APQ's UFO Challenge 2020 - June Finish from Grandma's Red Needle

It's already Tuesday afternoon and a week since my previous post where I posted a sneak peek of a UFO I worked on during the lock-down.

This is Quiltsy Team's and APQ's UFO Challenge 2020; #11 - June challenge. (My UFO list #16) Twin size quilt. Finished August 6, 2020.

To create this quilt, I have pieced together 1.5 inch squares to 36-patch and 9-patch blocks. Each block measuring 6 inch square.

I don't remember exactly when I started cutting and piecing these blocks, it may be back in 2018 or earlier. Madness? Maybe! LOL One ...
