A finish for my Mom's UFO was Friday. Saturday I picked up a back and batting for it. Pink thread for the quilting and a quilt stitch design that looks real close to the design in the focus fabric. The pink thread will really standout against the white back. Can you see the Storm at Sea pattern created by the block placement. Wonder if I should have had all the center four-patches going in the same direction... May have to hold the quilting until I figure this out.
Friday this quilty gift arrived from Aunt Marti. She picks a random winner for participation in the UFO monthly parade. I won in October. The parade is the first day of each month. If you have time December 1st is a day to look at 52quilts.com.
My stats change with the addition of Chapter 11. No change for my Mom's UFO since I didn't purchase the fabric. Now my design wall is barren! Time to get back to my flying santas.

Surprise from Aunt Marti, lovely words on her card, super goodies, and all done with Mum's quilt, it looks great hanging there.
Mom's quilt looks great. and the back and the quilting you picked sounds perfect. Think you can wait until the first of the year to start on A Prairie Gathering? Nice gift from Aunt Marti.
