I have 3 unfinished Quilts & I want to try free motion quilting on my home machine i find that is hard because they are big & I have only stitched in the ditch. I rented time on a long arm & and I did free motion & loved it .It was so relaxing. Has any one tried those frames that you can set up on your table and use it as a long arm.

My guild had a challenge two years ago. I was able to identify 13 that needed completion and I set about to work on them. I polished off 4. I recently moved into a new house. In the process of moving into my first real sewing room in over 20 years, I discovered at least a dozen more than the 13 UFO’s in my memory. And I’m still unpacking. Resolution: No new projects until two are finished.

This is very timely for me! I have my own UFOs as well as UFOs inherited from my momma & aunt when they died 5 years ago! Your post gave me the nudge I needed to start working through them. Thank you!

I easily have over around 35 unfinished projects. I love to start new things and get bored easily. My daughter says I have ADHD and I agree. My projects are beginning to haunt me and I actually have quilted a quilt that I finished years ago. I have finished tow tops this year and am trying to get yet another UFO I started 15 years ago put together this week.

In reply to Debbie Skinner. I liked some of the challenges quilt guilds had for members to finish their UFO's. I don't belong to any and have not checked to see how many I do have. I know I have one. I was a Girl Scout leader for my daughter and helped with a sewing badge. Woman told them about quilts made in the old days by hand and how the young girls had to have so many made before they married. (no stores to buy blankets then) While the girls handmade 9 patch blocks by hand I made some also. Still have them, never finished. I'm not a by-hand quilter. Guess I better check my own stash, maybe some of my UFO blocks could make lap quilts for the veterans.

I have UFO’s (ALL) over my quilt room. There are too many to count. There may be in the range of 30. I have to say that is an embarrassing number. Quilting is great until a distraction “squirrel” changes my direction.
