Worked on:

#4- Who's My Neighbor blocks - bought sky and sand material and resized the templates for 12" block not 16.---1 hr

#1 - Granny's Flower #1 - worked on hand sewing the binding.---1 hour

#2 & #3 - Ironed material washed yesterday for the Alyssa's Bears and CJ's cars.---15 mins

#5 - Looked for 3rd material to go with the frog material (tossed 9 patch)---15 mins

This is fun! I can see where we can get a lot done working this way.

4 1/2 hours on #1-- my 2007 autograph quilt. I cut and put all three borders on and now it is ready to sandwich and quilt. If I didn't sign up for this UFO buster - It probably would have sat in the closet for another year.
Thanks DJ

Project #1-Pieced Dresdan Plate--30 minutes=peiced plates

Project #2-Bear Paw--25 minutes=sewing the backing together by hand

Project #3-Granny's Flower Garden--1 hour=hemming on the binding

Project #4-Friendship Star Swap--50 minutes=worked on 2 blocks

Project #5-Egg Money--30 minutes=machine quilted

Has anyone made the pieced Dresdan Plate??? If so, I need some pointers. I worked on this quilt all the month of June and didn't get it finished. I'd rather piece the plates and applique them onto the background by hand, this methold is a huge pain.
