WOOFA Progress

While I was trying to decide which of my UFOs to start working on to link up to WOOFA, my sister Ida from "My Sister Made Me Do It" decided to start a new UFO.  I had given her a copy of "Long Time Gone Quilt" by Jen Kingwell in 2018, the year I started mine.  I worked on my "Long Time Gone" quilt from time to time.  Well, Ida decided to start hers and sibling rivalry being what it is, I had to get back to mine before she had more of the blocks done than I did.     

Long story longer...I had to get to the cutting table and get busy.  It seems like it always takes longer to cut out the pieces than it does to sew them together.  

Then I started with the Bow Tie Block. It looks easy enough to sew up and since I know what I'm doing,  after all, I've been sewing since I was 14 (many many years ago) so I proceeded to sew the block "all wrong."  My bow ties were all going to be white surrounded with the fabrics that were supposed to make up the bow ties. Back to the cutting table....

Then, still working on the premise that "I know what I'm doing..." I proceeded to sew one block correctly and the other WRONG AGAIN!

Finally, here are the finished 2 blocks required.

While I was on a roll, I decided to do one more block since Ida is fast catching up. I sewed the Jacob's Ladder block and did it all correctly the first time.

I am linking up to WOOFA today....please click on this LINK or on the WOOFA image to go visit Cheryll's blog and see all the progress being done by other bloggers joining the challenge.

That is all.

 Wow, it seems like in order to keep blogging, I need some sort of motivation. I was doing real good when I was madly sewing pincushions for the recent Pincushion Parade but after that I quit.  My sister from "My Sister Made Me Do It" has again motivated me by telling me about the  WOOFA Challenge which entails working on or finishing a UFO. I may kill two birds withone stone: actually finish a UFO and get back to blogging.

So here's my UFO list. The icon above and the list are also on my sidebar.

Star Spangled Table Topper - 2019

As  you can see, I've had some of these UFOs a long time. You can also see that I have no problem adding new ones.  Ok, I'm off to sew something.

That is all.
