A little UFO progress....

Judy L.'s UFO challenge for January is the number 5...it's the one that needed to be sashed, joined, sandwiched and quilted (and probably machine binded!) In other words--the one that is the most work of the 10 on my list. Well, I am determined to finish by month's end. So now that our wonderful company has gone and we're 'back to normal'....the blocks are sashed, joined and the first border is on!! (It's displayed on the 'design area' where it will eventually stay :-)
The border fabric looks sort of vintage and is busy enough to compete with the blocks. It's an old Cranston Village print that's been in the stash F O R E V E R......! Likin' how it looks and glad to use it up. It will be the binding fabric, too, after a wide white border for the next. The little sixteen patch pillow plays along nicely also. Even though this UFO, needed the most work...it is bringing me lots of joy as I work on it.

Flowers from DS at Christmas to close........have a good weekend and happy sewing!!
