I wanted to post more pictures of all the 12 UFOs I want to complete for Quilting Gail's PHD 2022 Challenge-but I still have not gathered all the photos. This post was started in the middle of January. The start of this semester was very busy and I have found myself struggling to get to post
I realize that to update this blog and keep up with challenges, I have a LOT to learn--like how to post the icon for the challenge, how to post the spreadsheet. I use Excel all the time--uploading to this blog post is definitely not the same as integrating it into a Word file, so, I will continue working on that.
I listed the UFO's in my post on the 15th of January, but this time I am trying to upload a picture of each one.
1. SEC quilt for my DH (needs borders)
More information about this quilt, its status, and the blocks is in my last post, but my task this week is to buy a new piece of royal blue for the outer border. I am not satisfied with the blue I could find when I purchased it in the summer of 2020--we were in Phoenix and all stores were closed down. I ordered it on-line, but when it arrived, it was not a pure, royal blue--it was almost an aquamarine blue.
UPDATE: The royal blue border fabric was purchased and borders were finally finished.
This one is now ready to be sent to a long arm quilter to be quilted. I do not trust my skill level to quilt it by machine, yet. With my rheumatoid arthritis, I can no longer handle the quilting of one this size (89" square).
2. Pink/Green Quilt (already quilted--just needs binding)

2. Pink/Green Quilt (already quilted--just needs binding)
I worked on this as a leader/ender project for a couple of years. It was an easy quilt to piece. I had it quilted during a summer that I spent in Pryor Creek, Oklahoma at a quilt shop there that is now closed. I have never added a binding to it.
UPDATE: Borders are cut and ready to see on. Hopefully I can stitch the border by Monday night and meet my goal for February!

12. Purple pinwheels quilt--all assembled--just needs quilting. I started this quilt about 12 years ago for my mother-in-law, Carol. She passed away before I could get it quilted, so it has sat. Time to get it quilted and bound. I think I will gift this to my sister-in-law, Carol's daughter. The fabrics wre bought as a collection from Keepsake Quilting quite a few years ago. Some of the pictures appear to be pink--there are pink hues, but it is primarily Purple, lavenders, and teals.
