I'm joining Jandi Dean on Instagram for her 2026 UFO Challenge. She's asked us to identify six UFO projects (so hard to narrow the vast list down to six!) with a goal of completing one per quarter. So here goes!

I actually made a list of six last year and finished zero. I've replaced one of those and here's my new list.

Overall I have chosen the low hanging fruit, as you'll see...

All About Angles in Blue Lagoon is a quilt top. However, I need to rip out a section to replace a piece of fabric that I found a flaw on after finishing the quilt top. No idea how I'll quilt it. I'm open to ideas!

Trinket is a finished quilt top. I think I'll do an all over free motion motif on the background of the blocks and in each 4-inch block I'll do some fancier FMQ. First step will be deciding what color thread to use.

Tic Tac Toe is a finished quilt top of bee blocks (from a bee I was in years ago). I think this is the next thing I'll put on the longarm. I think the repeated geometric design will give me an opportunity to make a plan for what FMQ designs to use and I imagine I'll see improvement in my longarm quilting by the time I finish the quilt.

Rainbow Chain is another set of old bee blocks. I set the layout when I was at quilt retreat in November and started piecing the blocks together. (This is the one that got added in for this year.)

Improv Houses is nearly a quilt top. It will require some partial seams and filling in sections to square it up.

Not sure why I listed the Wholecloth FMQ quilt last, because it'll be the first one finished as it is currently on the longarm. I even worked on it a bit this weekend. Then I ran out of bobbin thread so I took a break.

Do you have any UFOs you're working on finishing up?
