Pedal to the Metal!

Nope, we're not talking about the gas pedal, but the sewing machine pedal and spinning wheel treadle. So many projects and so little summer left to complete them. What happen to the resolution that a new project wouldn't be begun until at least two UFO's were finished? It went out the window! Who can resist something different, unique and unusual? New fabrics, new patterns, new techniques....all there for the taking. A chance to fill the brain with more energy! Besides who made that resolution anyway?
Well, these two barn blocks were completed so can't these count towards UFO's? More paper piecing, which are fun to make.
This is the first time hexagons were ever made--not so sure it was as much fun as paper piecing.
Oh, look--this project has been wrapped up!! so, that definitely counts towards finishing UFO's!!
These 12 blocks are from the jelly roll sampler project.
Now, here are three new UFO's to add to the growing list. This one is called All Points North and South.
This project took more time than was first expected--lots of small 3.5" blocks--over 200+ of them. Since this is a mystery........hope, it's all worth it in the long run.
And this final project--made from batiks--first month, make 4 blocks of the same block. This should be interesting.
