Since it is perilously close to 9PM (and we have established the NO SEWING AFTER 9PM RULE) I decided to dig around through my stash for something new to put up in the living room. Our friends (yes, the kitchen dudes) gave us their "old" jumbotron TV, and I'm moving furniture around, etc. and re-nesting the room. I came across one of my UFO's from (I am serious) about 10 years ago (is that a UFO record?) and I'm happy to see that if I finish quilting it, I have a perfect spot for it on the wall opposite the fireplace. Good times, right?
But wait, there is more. I also found one of my Mom's UFO's (I think it was a practice piece for one she made for my sister-in-law.) So I unrolled it and - lo and behold - I took it downstairs, and YES, it is perfect for the freshly painted kitchen! I wanted to paint the walls blue but lost out to the assorted men in my life, so this is a fine bit of luck. I love the tumbling blocks and I love it that my Mom pieced it and I'm going to quilt it. I'm 2 for 2 with UFO's - what a good night!
