Warning Signs of a UFO

Can you tell when your project is at risk of becoming a UFO (UnFinished Object)? The American Quilter's Society features some signs to alert you and steps you can take to prevent an alien invasion.

While the tips were written for quilters, they can apply to any type of craft.

Need Motivation?

We all have them: those WIPs (works in progress), taking up precious space. We've purchased extra project bags and come up with creative storage solutions. But if you're not ready to completely abandon that WIP, what's holding you back from finishing it?

Orphan Block Minis

Do you have a box or bin containing orphan blocks?

We All Sew's tutorial will help those orphan blocks into mini quilts, doll quilts, or mug mats.

Tackle those UFOs

Weavers, spinners, quilters, crocheters, knitters - work on a variety of projects, and from time to time some projects become stalled or are forgotten.

Let's be honest: we all have unfinished projects (UFOs) tucked away in bags, boxes, and baskets. It might be time to come up with a plan to tackle them and to gain some room in your closets or project bags. You may want to find a new home for some projects, salvage supplies from another, and finally complete those that you love.

McCall's Quilting's blog published a strategy to deal with Projects in Bags, and maybe it will give you the nudge that you need.
