What's the Buzz?

A UFO in the quilting world stands for an "Unfinished Object" or a quilt project that you started, but never finished.  There are many reasons why we don't finish projects: not enough time, don't remember how to do it, can't understand the next step, don't have the right tools, or just doesn't have a purpose anymore! 

We have heard many of you tell us about all your UFO's and we would like to help you get them done, once and for all!! It feels so great to finish up projects, clear out space in your sewing room (and in your head) while making room for more creativity!

• Download the UFO form found below and fill in the 6 projects you want to complete.  Return this completed form to use via email, snail mail or in the shop by May 31st
• Pay the one-time $20 registration fee by May 31st
