It is possible to go through your entire life without ever having gone through a universal palindrome.......but we did it yesterday! For number geeks like me who get excited about things like this, it was a special day. The date 02/02/2020 is an eight digit number that can be read forward and backward and be the same. So, if you didn't feel special yet today, just know that yesterday you lived through a unique phenomenon. It won't happen again until 12/12/2121. This month's UFO is a Bonnie Hunter class project that I took back in March of 2014. Talkin Turkey is the name of the pattern. 
I stopped before making the pattern border as I was unsure what border I wanted on my quilt. Bonnie Hunter's border has many pieces and that didn't appeal to me. Then my brain when off on a tangent with a plan for a border with appliqued turkey feathers on it. It sounded good at the time, but I rejected it. 
There is a reason why this UFO has been in the decision making stage for this long. 
Now is the right time to move this UFO into a finished quilt. I have decided to put a simple hst border on it. Here is a picture of the quilt on my design wall today, with a sample of a simple border. 
What is on your design wall? I didn't look at very much last week, as I caught the flu/cold that has been going around, and am just now feeling better. I hope to spend some time Tuesday admiring this week's pictures. Please provide a link back to this blog post from somewhere within your blog post. Thanks! You are invited to the Inlinkz link party!
