QQQ's UFO COMPETITION - We have a winner!

Each year, the QQQ team has a UFO competition. In quilting language, UFO means Un-Finished-Object. Many of us quilters always have UFO's that are not finished for several reasons. The beginning of the year is always the best time to take action and finish those UFO's, or at least some.
The UFO competition began February 1st and ended July 31st. The 'fee' for participating in the competition is 1 Fat Quarter per UFO.

There were 19 entrants, some with several UFO's they wanted to finish before deadline; bed quilts, baby quilts, wall quilts, table runners/toppers and quilted bags. Now the UFO competition has come to an end and we have 48 finished quilts. Click here and you will see them all.

The voting is done and we have two winners!

DRUMROLL PLEASE!

Voter's choice goes to Beverley from More Than Just Quilts with her stunning scrappy twin/queen bed quilt

The random choice win
goes to Elizabeth from Lightside Creations with her Walking Dead tote bag 

CONGRATULATIONS to both winners! Well deserved!
Fat quarters will soon find their way to your mail boxes!

THANK YOU to all entrants for participating and CONGRATULATIONS on ALL FINISHED UFO'S! Well done!

'Stunning scrappy churn dash small bed quilt,colorful throw blanket all set on point in a fabulous array of colors. This quilt top was pieced by my sister Anni Rice and I machine quilted it using a floral and leaf pattern. It has a double layer of batting to make the quilting really "pop".
