The navy blue Sew Together bag was a UFO most of 2021, but now it's checked off my list. Yay!!
This is #17 for this bag pattern. Guess I really need to learn to make a different type of bag some day. But I really do like making these little bags!
The other finish is the Bats & Boos wall hanging. This was actually one of those squirrels that crossed my path and insisted that I drop everything and make it. And I'm so glad that I did because this was a very fun project. This one will go to the quilt show this weekend. And then next Monday morning I will hang it from the quilt rail in the living room for the rest of October.
I've often said that I'm a nerd who loves a spreadsheet. Projects are so easy to track with a very simple spreadsheet. I have a tab for my UFO Challenge list, a tab for random blocks made, and a tab for project finishes. When I start working on a project I list it on that sheet, and then when it's finished it gets a date and category selected from a drop down menu I created. That way I know how many of anything I've actually finished. My finished total for 2021 wouldn't look very impressive without so many pillowcases added in.
It's fun to see how many things actually did get completed this year. And those items started but not finished show up highlighted in yellow until they are done, which is a good reminder to keep working on them.

Both such nice projects, the wall hanging is perfect for October!
I love your spreadsheet! I keep one of all the quilts I have quilted. I have lists in my journal of my goals and what I accomplish each year.
