The UFO for January is on the Design Wall now.  I am excited to get this one moving along.  It's a cheddar baskets quilt that I am still undecided about the border.  I thought it was finished, but now I am thinking of adding hsts around the edge.  I last posted about it (Here)

While I am pondering it, one idea came to me to combine two UFOs into one, and add embroidered baskets that were intended to be a quilt on their own to the white empty squares of this quilt.  Downside would be:  Since I only have one and one/half baskets embroidered, it would set this project back into the UFOs for quite some time.

PROGRESS REPORT on last week's projects:1) Machine quilting on the quilt I was working on last week.  The machine quilting is about 3/4 finished, so I'm on the home stretch.  I am getting a teeny-tiny bit confident with the process.  Progress and practice is a good thing. The baby quilt binding job is completed, and I am storing this one away for a future great grandchild.  This one is completed, except for a label to be added at the time it is gifted. It was a kit I bought and I love the bright colors and old fashioned "Dick and Jane" look.   The long arm quilter did a great job with alphabet letters, balloons, and crayons, etc. The needlepoint angel project is moving right along.  I am looking at other tree topper angels to see how they are constructed.  And deciding what I will use for the back and sides of the angel......fabric from my stash probably, but haven't looked yet.  I didn't do any hand quilting, as the angel kept me busy with hand work. What progress can you report  this week?  Thanks so much for linking up and showing us your beautiful projects.  As usual, my only request is that you link back to this specific blog post somewhere within your blog post.  Thanks!
