UFO List for 2012

Ok, I had the time so I got my list made, I've checked it twice and decided on these UFO's for 2012.  Some of them might look familiar because they were on last years lists. Only a few are NEW UFO's.  Lets see how long it takes for me to start a new project in the New Year...My quilting friends already have a couple of ideas in mind. #1 is the Farmer's Wife Quilt, #2 is the McCall's Quilting Magazine Mystery. It in the Current Jan/Feb Magazine.

 UFO #1 Crayons - Charity- ( maybe 1 more block, needs sashings, borders, quilting)
I won these a Block Lotto at Guild.  All that year we made Blocks from Nancy Johnson-Srebro's Book "Block Magic".  Since Judy's new Book, 60 Pieced Quilt borders is on Pre-order I want to try some of her new border treatments for this one.

UFO #2 Candy Jars- Christmas
 Christmas Quilt that didn't get finished in 2010 or 2011.  It's back on here. Third time is the Charm, I hope.

UFO #3 Civil War 150th Anniversary (2011 Block of the week) 17 of 56 Blocks made.
When I'm not too busy I'll have to work on making the needed blocks for this one. Maybe take this one on a Retreat...

UFO #4 Christmas Lone Star  (still needs set-in squares, Quilting)
 My Christmas Quilt that I wanted to make using the non-traditional colors.  I'm still deciding if I want to have pieced Blocks in the Corner squares.

UFO #5 New Years Reflections (SBS SWAP) X 2
I did 2 Swaps of these Blocks.  CRAZY, HUH?  The 2nd set we made the whole block, and they weren't these fabrics. I lucked out when I found the right BLUE, A Jennifer Chiaverini Fabric for the Strips around the 4.5" inner blocks

UFO #6 SWAP SBS -Red & White, Red White & Black, Blue and Brown
I've done 3 SWAPs with the SBS group and would like to combine them all into one quilt somehow.  I'll need to use my EQ on this one.

UFO #7 Trudy's Stars- These barely made an appearance last year on a Design Wall Monday.  They will make a Charity quilt for our Guild Project. 

UFO #8 Author's Album Swap SBS- 2011
This one was using Civil War prints and Kona Cream.  I learned there is a difference in Cream and Ivory in the Kona Solids. Calling this one "Author's Lesson learned"

UFO #9 Churn Dash/Marti Michell Wild Rose Fabric
These are the Block I made for the McCall's 1st Challenge using the wrong dimensions for them. I love using Marti Michell's fabrics. This pattern looks more like the hole in the barn door.  I'll have to think of a name that includes the "wild rose".

UFO #10 Sarah's Choice Swap -SBS 2009 This swap was done around Christmas time, that explains the Red and Green color scheme. I think we were to include Gold as well. See that one block with Gold background screaming off the wall?

   UFO #11 Buggy Barn Stars- Made with Pat Sloan's R,W & B fabrics called Sweet Liberty. The Buggy Barn Ladies got me on this one.  I see a lot of Star quilts on this list. 

  UFO #12 Hancock BOM (blue)
This is a UFO from around the time I was trying to move away from the Tri-Cities. My process was not quite as bad as Judy L's last year.  But it took a while.  I think it was the last BOM that Jo Fox created just for us from Judy Hopkins Books "Around the Block" and "Around the Block Again".  The Hancock Fabrics started their own after this one, where you had to buy each block kit and make it. I think they called it Saturday Sampler.  How many others went to those? I miss Jo and the fun ladies I used to visit with once a month and share. So I think I'll call this one "True Blue Jo"! 

These are the 12 Quilts I will concentrate on in 2012!  I hope to be better at getting them all Completed at least to a "Flimsy", Quilt Top ready for Quilting.
