UFO CLUB 2011
Purpose
The purpose of the UFO Club is to provide a fun and encouraging environment for quilters to finish projects that have been begun but set aside, UFOs.
Structure
The Club will meet monthly from September 2010 to September 2011. Two months will be dark, November and December of 2010. At our monthly meetings we will share success and setbacks. We will encourage each other with helpful comments and suggestions. Also, we will applaud and reward those who have completed any UFOs on their list or even outside of the list. The goal is for each member to complete 10 UFO Projects by the last meeting in September, 2011.
The List
- Each member will write down 10 projects that are unfinished.
- Copies will be made for store and club member.
- Members may create a list and join the club at any time during the year.
- At each meeting we will draw a number – each member is challenged to complete the corresponding project on her list prior to the next meeting. However . . .
- Members may substitute another UFO for one already on the list.
- A Finished project means a project that is quilted and bound, or a completely finished bag, apron, etc.
- Members who complete their list of projects by the September 2011 meeting will receive a grand prize. The projects do not have to be completed monthly.
Suggestions for Success
- Don’t make all of your projects difficult, mix in some easy-to-finish projects too.
- Attend Fuzzy Slipper on the 2nd and 4th Friday nights of each month – sometime you get more done when you sew with friends.
- Ask questions at the meeting regarding difficult projects – share your valuable tips with others.
- If you plan to use a long-arm professional, schedule an appointment for a month or two away.
