UFO Blog Hop Starts Today, My Day

I'd like to thank Joan from Moosestash Quilting for the challenge of finishing a UFO, or something along an alien theme. I have plenty of UFO's (unfinished objects) and was happy for this challenge. I chose to finish two projects. A list of the entire schedule is below.

The first project I decided to finish was my friend Jandra's Boho Bag. I had had it at this stage for several months, the front of the bag partially embellished. Jandra loves Minnie Mouse, so that was the theme.

I finished embellishing it first. And added the lace, beads and fringe around the front flap.

I added doilies for pockets to the lining

The finished back and front.

I delivered it to her on Friday and she loved it. She even has it displayed in her living room.

The second project I finished was my granddaughter Kyleigh's graduation quilt. She graduated in May from nursing school in Boston. I sort of had this mostly quilted when my Handiquilter Moxie decided to start doing some creative long stitches. I took it off the frame and ended up finishing the quilting on my domestic machine while I was being sent a new part for the stitch regulator. I gifted it to her this weekend. The quilt was called Flourishes designed by Piece of Cake Designs.
