UFO Blog Hop

I just knew that when Joan announced this hop I would have a great time. Where to begin? UFO can mean a few things to quilters, Unfinished Objects and we all have them which makes this such an inclusive hop.

I only needed to find my UFO bin to have something that would work for me and the hop.

I found this one and thought that I had pulled it a couple of years ago to finish, apparently not.

It was full of the original pins and its half quilted.

I tried to find a blog from the past where I posted about it or should I say them. I made several as Christmas gifts one year and this one was supposed to be mine. The best I could do was find a note about one hanging at my sisters for so long we didn't remember when I made them. The note was dated 1/1/12 which makes it more than 10 years in the making.

Well it is now a done deal. OOPS, I think I forgot the eye balls, tee hee.

Ok fixed that. It is NOW a done deal. Ya Hoo

Thank you Joan, it's a wonderful feeling to see it completed.

The other UFO, Unidentified Flying Object is right up my alley. Back in June of 2021 Joan hoasted the Fairy Tales Blog Hop.

At that time I made and posted about The Tardis which stands for Time And Relative Dimension in Space. Its the Police Public Call Box that Doctor Who travels in. Its a Type 40 time and space machine from Gallifrey, his home planet but I only got as far as finishing the top. I did get it quilted right after the Hop but never got around to the binding. Again, a project for me and those seem to be the ones left as UFO's the most often.

So I have now taken my Tardis and finished it. It is no longer an unfinished quilt project.

A UFO by any other name.

Joan thanks so much, I had a great time and am already looking forward to the next adventure.

Below is a list of all the participants for this event. You'll have a great time if you take a few minutes and visit with them all and let them know how great their clean up has been.
