The APQ UFO Challenge drew the number 8 for the month of May.
One project on my list is already done - the Sew Together bag. I finished it a couple of months ago, and it has been gifted to a friend. On my list I've listed 2 UFOs for each month, plus a PIG so that I have the option to also work on something purchased long ago but not started. I have way too many kits sitting in drawers. I definitely don't finish everything each month, but do try to get at least 2 of the 3 moved forward toward finished. Sometimes they get finished in a different month, which is OK. Anything remaining on the list at the end of the year gets carried over into the next year.
The UFO listed on top is already a completed top, so I need to choose a backing and get it into the quilting queue. It was one of my versions of last year's Saturday Sampler. I made 3 different sets of blocks last year. This will most likely be a donation quilt or a gift eventually.
The PIG I've selected is small - a table runner kit purchased on sale about a year ago. Lots of fun watermelon prints, and blending fabrics. The pattern was for the Gameboard table runner, which is a Pieced Tree pattern - one of those cute little pattern cards. But I had a couple of other possible layouts in mind, so of course it got set aside. Once I check off a couple of this week's goals, then I'll do some measuring and see which layout might work best. This table runner might be one I keep for a fun summer option.

The sampler is bold and cheerful the same time! The PIG has a lovely array of prints.
The runner fabrics are cheerful and will look great for a summer project. The Pincushion must be a great place to shop.
What a fun project to tackle before summer. Love those greens and reds.
