Inspiring Quilters, Stitch by Stitch
FIUP stands for Finish It Up. Turn those UFOs into FFOs.
Take a look at the FIUP Guidelines in this group's pages then come back to this discussion and post your goals. The Guidelines can be found on this group's home page in the box labelled "Pages" directly under the box containing the member avatars.
The more participants we have, the bigger and better the FQ stash to be awarded to one lucky winner at the end of the challenge. Invite your My Quilt Place friends in other groups to join. Invite your Facebook friends to join. Oh what the heck, even invite that really cute guy from the coffee shop. You never know, he may be a man-quilter.
If I have not received your FQ by the deadline, you will not be eligible for the prize drawing.
1) Sign-up begins March 1, 2012 and ends March 15, 2012.
2) As soon as you sign up and post your goals, you may begin.
3) During the challenge, post your progress, photos of your projects, encouragment to other participants, or just pop in to say hello.
4) By 6:00pm on Monday, April 30, 2012, post the total number of goals you completed for this challenge. It is difficult for me to keep up with the completed goals so this is on the honor system.
5) Mail your FQ and postage to me by March 30, 2012
Remember, set realistic goals so as not to get discouraged. You can even break a project down into individual steps and use these as your goals. The idea is to FINISH something.

Permalink Reply by Mary Moore on April 24, 2012 at 9:02pm Finished my last two goals; the crocheted motifs and putting the crazy quilt blocks together with some sort of border. Will not do a picture until the next set of goals, as the motifs need to be sewn on and all the seams embellished (and frankly, I am a symmetrical person and being crazy is very wearing).
I think we have lots of folk doing really well in finishing lots of stuff. I may do some spring cleaning to finish the month. Yuck!

Permalink Reply by Dot Kirchmann on April 30, 2012 at 2:59pm I can't remember which pictures I posted before, so here are some of the projects I completed for the March/April FUIP. I think I have to do it in two postings as it is limiting me to 3 attachments.
Permalink Reply by Dot Kirchmann on April 30, 2012 at 3:00pm So here are the last 2 projects. Six completed in all.
Permalink Reply by Nancy Gardner on April 30, 2012 at 7:37pm It has been too long since I participated in recording what I have been up to for March and April. I will try to be better in May. I actually finished 3 of my goals. I finished my spider web quilt, but have not quilted it yet. I finished and quilted my embroidery quilt and I completed the picnic table cloth goal. I got side tracked and made another spider web quilt, so I will quillt two for May June. and promise to be better at joining in the sharing on an ongoing basis.
