What’s your oldest UFO? Any tips on how you keep them from piling up?: Quilt I designed and bought material for about 22 years ago. Picked it back up recently, and now I have all pieces cut out! I don’t necessarily have a lot of ufo’s right now, but I guess it’s because I’m usually making things for a certain occasion. Anything that piles up is because it’s for me, which is this one I’m working on now. I’m very excited about getting to it!
What’s your favorite creative outlet?: Crochet, quilting, scrapbooking, not in any particular order.
