Grannyanne Beach Hut


Well I've done some, not as much as I hoped because feeding two hungry boys took away some sewing time. The tap is now dripping and the beach ball is complete perhaps I should finish the swimsuit next. I will do a bit more at the weekend. I am so impressed by the designs which other members are doing. Mine is easy by comparison. I do have other UFO's which are more complicated but I thought start small and work up. You could have quite a discussion on whether something qualifies as a UFO or not. For example I opened up a kit some years ago, Father Christmas with a wish list, started to sort the threads saw just how many bundles there were and put it away. The kit has been opened so is it a UFO or just another item in the stash? Happy stitching everyone and thank you Jen for providing the opportunity for us all to encourage each other with our unfinished projects.

Congratulations, Grannyanne! All progress, no matter how small, is still progress. Doesn't it feel great to have some more stitches in on a piece that has been neglected so long?

Well,Yippee I can see progress. You must be pleased even if this is not one of your favourites. Lots of back stitching I see. (My favourite way to pass the time!) I'll look forward to your next post. Don't tell me one's with sorted threads are UFO's as well, that means there are even more in my cupboard. Every stitch is one stitch closer to framing.

I can definitely see progress! This looks so cute - I can't wait to see the finish. Yikes! The opened ones are UFO's?! I'm a fabric, floss and pattern fondler -whether I'm ready to stitch them or not...I sure hope this blog stays active for a LONG time - I'm gonna need a LOT of encouragement to finish ALL my UFO's! :)

I think if your item is just opened but not started on stitching then it is not a UFO, just an item in stash. :)
Great progress on this one, I love the colours.
