11 Checks - UFO Blog Hop

Welcome to the second day of the

UFO Blog Hop!

I'm always saying, "Check that off the list!"
Today I have 11 checks thanks to Joan at MooseStash Quilting.

Joan at MooseStash Quilting presented bloggers with the challenge to make something

inspired by UFOs. Are we talking Unfinished Objects or are we talking Aliens?

Joan said it was completely up to us.

Thank you, Joan, for inviting me to join this super fun blog hop I needed this one!

I chose to tackle a big pile of unfinished objects.

The pile of quilts has been in a corner forever!

I really didn't know what they needed. I knew 2 needed to be trimmed and binding added.

A few needed a little repair here and there.

Some (4) had the binding added with HeatnBond Lite because of deadlines (don't judge)

and needed the binding stitched.

Now all those quilts are really

FINISHED!!!!!!

All 10! All Finished!

The dinosaur had been cut out in February one day when I had a little helper.

Only 5 months ago - that's not so bad.

It certainly wasn't the easiest thing to sew, but it is finished

and now this dinosaur is ready to be loved.

The first person to say they want this book can have it!

I'll never stitch another one of these.

Seriously!

I won't make you fight over it, but mention you want it and I'll do an impromptu giveaway.

Check out all the other UFO's this week for lots of inspiration!

See Ya Later Alligator - Blog Hop Sign-Ups

Today I am happy to announce a new stitching blog hop.

What is a Blog Hop?

It's like a "show and tell" online.

Our blog hops feature sewing and quilting and are like joining a quilt guild without leaving home. Once the theme (challenge) is presented we set to work sewing.

We inspire each other with projects, tutorials, or patterns.

Anyone can follow along.

There are about 2 months to sew something and join in on the fun.

It's another easy theme that should have you thinking of lots of things you could make.

The Challenge:

Create something to do with TRAVEL.

Anything from places to go, to how you get there, and anything in between.

Maybe even an alligator?

You decide!

The theme is really your own interpretation, surprise us!

The Rules:

Post on your assigned day at 12:00 am Eastern time.

Have a giveaway or don't have a giveaway. It's totally optional!

Visit everyone's blog on the list and leave a sweet comment. Make friends!!!!
