I missed posting on UFO Monday as it was such a busy day with my quilting group meeting and family commitments. I have been busy working on finishing
up more UFOs and this first photo is part of a very large quilt made from half inch hexagons. The second photo shows what I had stitched last week and above you can see my progress since then. Once I start stitching the border hexies it seems to grow more slowly. This will still be a long term project but I need to keep working on it and get it finished. I'm really enjoying stitching this one again and can't wait to attach this part to the main quilt. I have one more section like this to stitch and one more large diamond shape to stitch before I move onto the next stage.
This large piece of hand pieced stars us another UFO that I have found and I gave finished off a couple of the remaining stars and added borders so it's now ready to quilt, hopefully this week. The stars were made from 6.5 inch squares of oriental fabric that I received in an online swap about 11 years ago.
I'm pleased with how it's looking and look forward to another UFO finish next week.
Hugs, Jan Mac

I LOVE your oriental star quilt, so beautiful! It's such aagood feeling to finish old projects. Happy Stitching!
Great progress on your UFOs...
Both quilts are very beautiful and a huge lot of work well worth it.
Wow, you’re doing really well with your UFOs. I’ve never done hexies and can’t imagine hand sewing such tiny morsels!
