Wow, can't believe you guys that have no UFO's - that's amazing! I finished my Celestial Garden Work Bench this month, will finish my stocking next month and then dig some really old ones out for the rest of the year... I like this club!! Hopefully I will have no more UFO's by the end of the year :D

Love your bear Sheila!

Hmm I like that idea - NO ufo's by the end of this year - you've got me thinking now.... :thinks:
I'm definitely going to work on this - it can be my late New Years resolution!! :D I've got a few UFO's - I only didn't join in this club this month as I desperately wanted to get my Henry finished :) I'll be joining in next month though ;)

:applesauce: fabulous finishes :)

so would ufo's be things you've started or piles you have with good intentions to start *ponder* I am still sorting the boxes from our move last year and shuffling things into appropriate piles . Current ufo (and only one in progress really) is a HouseMouse pattern - "Hot Stuff"

perhaps ill be ambitious and get back too it -

I might just join you next moth, I have about 4 UFO's every one of them at least 4 years old! My bumble bees are probably celebrating their 6th birthday this year. Embarrasing really :oops:

I'd like to see that, I love bumblebees! Is it a realistic design or more cartoony?

I will be working on my 12 month sampler for the first 7 days of the month. Actually, if I finish the project I am doing right now I may get a head start. I need to iron the poor thing...

I'll be working on my Serenity project for the UFO week. It will be a UFO for quite some time, but hopefully this will encourage me to keep at it steadily. Before and afters to come after the 7th. :)

Brilliant! I'm ashamed to say I've only just got round to watching Firefly, I'm about half way through the series. As a massive Buffy fan I should have watched it ages ago, loving it so far!

Anyway, thought you might find this amusing:

I had a good stitching session over the weekend and got most of the progress I made, done then.I still find the DMC Light Effects thread awkward to use,even with Thread Heaven, but the fairy's wings do shimmer beautifully, so it's worth it.

Oh Shoot!!! I completely forgotten about the UFO for this month. Probably because I was so busy stitching up for May birthday family members. I am thinking of pulling out either my herd of elephants, Let's bounce (Disney), "White Magic' Storykeep or African safarai for May UFO week. U can tell that I have lot of UFOs, eh?
