Ring Toss & Polka Dots

With a title like that one might think I was gonna talk dots but I'm not. I am here to talk about a couple of my UFOs. Take a look at my UFO list over on the right. There are a couple of changes.

Notice #11 & #16 have been removed. Not all UFOs need to be completed by me in order to be removed. I have decided to donate these two items to World of Charity because (a) I knew they would put them to good use and (b) I wouldn't - IF I ever finished them at all.  So so long dear friends later gators!!

Today, I want to introduce you to #13 & #25. First up is the Ring Toss Quilt. I honestly don't remember when I started this quilt. I do, however, remember who I was making it for. I was making it for my BFF Foo. I have mentioned Foo on this blog on several occasions. She lives in Michigan and I miss her so very much even though we talk all the time. We get to see each other about 4ish times a year but it never seems like enough. But I digress...here is Ring Toss...

The picture to the left of the top is the final border (lighter one) and the backing (gorgeous turquoise).

I absolutely fell in love with this quilt again after I pulled it out. The fabrics are amazing. I purchased this kit from Connecting Threads and I am telling you they have a great hand to them. I wanted to start working on it right then and there...but I am trying to stay focused. I can't wait to work on this one again.

The other project I want to introduce you to is #25 and hopefully the next one to fall from the list. I found this project in my "15 minutes or less" drawer. That means it can be completed in 15 minutes or less. I know, I know!!! I don't wanna hear it! I'm not even gonna offer up any lame excuses.

Here she is...

Yes, I know she looks done and I thought so too but I didn't pull the rope through the handles (I didn't think it would be a big deal. Turns out it is). Since then I have bought the rope I need, I just need to pull it through the handles. 15 minutes or less.....so sad. This is how it is currently sitting on my cutting table...

I am hoping if I don't put it away I will just finish it...I mean really!!!!

Well, today I have introduced you to two of my UFOs. I am so glad I did because first off, I fell in love with one of them all over again and second, I realized how lame it is that one of them is even a UFO! NOT FOR LONG!! Stop hounding me, I get it! Bye!
