Today I decided to sit at the sewing machine and sew for a bit.
All this folding, organizing and packing was just wearing me out!
Also I was afraid that if I pack up this leader and ender project from two years ago that it would never be sewn together! So after several hours I almost have a top!
Did go through some more boxes that leaves me shaking my head...
like this almost quilt top made from leftover/orphan blocks from my Baltimore Album quilt. I think I took that class in 1993! I think I'm going for a personal record with this....
Found boxes of 4-patches in reproduction fabric...
two patches in brights
and even the blocks from a Bonnie Hunter Mystery (this is only about 10 years old so not ready to finish yet!)

Owning 10-yr (or more) UFOs, I don't feel so badly now, knowing that you have one as well. I doubt mine will ever get completed. And it worries me not.
I feel your pain. I think my oldest UFO is 20 years old and then they fall everywhere in between then and now. You've made some nice discoveries. : )
I'm always amazed at what I find in my sewing room during a move!
I need to clean my sewing room too. I know I've got some really old UFO's hidden in my room. Hugs
Annoying I know when your packing to find all this UFO's but consider them treasures! Then rate them, your treasures or another quilters and decide to keep and pack or to gift? I am sure there are plenty of fellow quilters happy to take some orphan blocks or a quilt top. Then again, they might just want your scraps and you can pack more UFO's to finish when you arrive!
I totally know how this goes!!! The UFO closets are scary places to visit!
I just took the same Wip out to work on as L/E!! Love those Lozenges.
