The challenge for this Blog Hop was to sew up a PIG’s – Projects In Grocery sacks, UFO – Unfinished Project or a WIP – Work In Project. WIP’s I don’t have any but UFO’s there are plenty. Actually, around 30 I think. Now, that may not sound too bad to some quilters. As far as I’m concerned that is way too many. I live in an apartment now and don’t have the room to be storing UFO containers. All my UFO’s need to be sewn up and quilted. When I noticed the gals were hosting a Sew It – Show It challenge for PIG’s, UFO’s & WIP’s, I decided to join since I had a UFO up on my flannel wall already. Why not, I hadn’t joined in a challenge since last year.

2019 UFO Challenge January Progress
I’m a late getting this post up but better late than never I guess. It was a busy January. Regardless, I was able to make some progress on my UFO.
January’s number to work on was 7. Celtic Hearts was my 7th project listed. Though I have stated this before I feel I must say this again. I’m not crazy about hand quilting. When I had first made the decision to hand quilt I was excited to give it a try. Didn’t take long for me to realize hand quilting is not for me. My guess this is why this project became a UFO.

I spent most of the night cutting the pieces for the block of the Honey Bee Lane BOM that I’m getting behind on. It’s a sweet BOM that my local quilt shop is doing.
FNSI Results…
FNSI was to be a weekend of sewing. I instead spent it sick. Not sure what the temps were but it didn’t feel cold having the windows open. It was sunny with a very light breeze. Just beautiful!
FNSI Results
Last month I enrolled to take part in a 6-month BOM at my local quilt shop. It’s a really cute quilt called Honeybee Lane designed by The Quilt Company. I just love this pattern! It is the cutest!! It’s like it was made for me!
We have to opportunity to work on our block at the shop or take it home. I worked on mine last Sunday at home after picking it up the day before. I’m not much of a piece’r but I found this block to be easy. Even with that, I still didn’t get it finished, so I decided would work on it some more for FNSI.
So here is the block after last Sunday night…..
