2013 UFO Challenge - February Completed

I've also left Februarys UFO post till the last minute. I finished 1 UFO's this month. I nearly did not get there this time. I've been a bit naughty, stating 4 projects (and not finishing any of these, ahem).

I finished a small embroidery for my mum. She was given this as a present and asked me to complete it for her. I stared it last January and had only finished one of the leaves. It's a small project, but it's still a finish.


The February project summary:
UFO's completed - 1
New projects started - 4
Total projects completed - 1
Terrible effort this month. Have added 4 new UFO's to the pile. Must try to be better next month.

Shepherd's Bush Christmas Stocking

Just before Christmas I finished the Thomas Stocking by Shepherd's Bush for my little ones first Christmas.
I loved this project and I am very pleased with the results. I now want to make one for my husband and for me.

2013 UFO Challenge - January Completed

Ive left January's UFO post till the last minute. But I did it. I finished 1 and a half UFO's this month.
The first one is a vest for my bubba. I'm not sure it will still fit come winter. Although he may be wearing it tomorrow as its only surpassed to be 19 degrees here. The wool is some that I got at last years craft fair.
The second project is the half. I was asked to make some curtains and chair covers for school. I have finished the curtains.
This month I have also finished a couple of new projects. I will show you those in the next few days.

The January project summary:
UFO's completed - 1 and a half
New projects started - 3
Total projects completed - 3 and a half
Not a bad effort. Now to decide what UFO's to complete next month.

Challenge Extended

I have been meaning to write this post all month. Time is moving to fast for me to keep up with at the moment. After Christmas I as thinking about new years resolutions and the large pile of UFO's I have. I said to my mum (over at The Witch on the Barn, who also has a substantial pile of UFO's) we should aim to complete one UFO a month and post about them on our blogs.

Rules...
1. UFO must have been started in 2012 or before.
2. The size, type and how much work is required to complete the UFO is irrelevant. It's about finishing things.
3. When the UFO is completed post about it and then complete a monthly tally of UFO's and other completed projects.
Come and join us in the 2013 UFO challenge. The more we finish the more we can start (and that means new supplies)!
