I've been reading about WIPs and UFOs on this blog today.
I rather like the fact that I have a few projects on the go.
I rather like the fact that I have a few projects on the go.
A few WIPs
and even a couple of UFOs !
I don't really know the difference but I guess if it's nearly finished it's a UFO
and if not it's a WIP !!
So this week I finally finished the second pillow case to match my quilt
which means that UFO is now finished !
... and I think it will be long enough with one more star.
So if you add my little crochet learning project I have a variety of projects on the go
and that feels good !!!
Cheers.

The second UFO is this wheelchair bag.
It 's handles velcro together over the armrest of a wheelchair so that a person can carry things around with them.
This one is destined to go to a child and only needs the binding round the top and the velcro to be added.
Recently my CWA group had a daylong working bee to make these for sufferers of MS.
Next come the WIPs
I now have seven tops done of my set of eight tablemats.
This is a slow project as Ionly learn one block a month.
I am also doing a table runner to go with this set.....
So if you add my little crochet learning project I have a variety of projects on the go

Your patchwork is lovely Helsie - you are obviously a natural at it. Your quilt and pillowcases look really lovely - made me want to come and have a lie down there! And your table mats are coming on well with only one more to go so perhaps I'll stay for dinner too!

I'm the same . I like to have a few things on the go at once so I can work on whatever takes my mood when I'm in the mood.
ReplyDeleteLOVE your table runner. Gorgeous!
Your patchwork is absolutely beautiful. I love the quilt on the bed that is stunning.

Lovely. I really need to get back to some quilting and put the hook away. I'm know what a WIP is, but am at a loss for this UFO thing.

Love the bed cover - looks brilliant. The placemats and runner are coming along nicely too. The wheelchair bag is very cute - well done! As for UFO's I have a crosswork cushion I started at least 15 years ago - very fine linen and myeyes now struggle to do counted crosswork!
ReplyDeleteThis is weird. I just looked and you started today too. We started blogging on the exact same day. So, Happy Anniversary right back at you. I so enjoy having found you and followed on your journey, too.

First offf - love, love, love your quilt and pillows - you have done a MAGNIFICENT job of these - now if I can place an order for a quilt please, colours are ...... please, I can even tell you my colours ☺ ☺ ☺
ReplyDeleteWIP - are items you are currently working on. And if you choose you can have multiple items, like me, stretches the brain and the fingers ☺
UFO - are items you started, put away for a while (intention was for a little while) and just never got back to - not what I like to do - rather undo it or start again
Ho ho ho! Contralutions Helen! It looks perfect.
ReplyDeleteOh wow! Your quilt and pillows are absolutely beautiful! I just love the colour choices for the room...just perfect! The table mats and runners are looking good too. I've just bought myself a couple of books on quilting, but still haven't been brave enpugh to give it a go! Love your little crocheted squares, shown in your last post too!
