Nothing But UFOs for August.

Here we go again. UFO time! Can you believe it is August already? Those of you that signed up last month made great progress on your UFOs. Keep up the good work. I know you all want to know who won the giveaway. The winner is Robin of Crafty Musings. She has been talking about joining up and she finally did. My daughter pulled her name out of the little tin. Congrats! Robin. I will be emailing you.
This month my plan is to finish appliqueing the two blocks from this Bunny Hill Designs BOM. I am linking this one to Melissa and Shanna's blogs for a A Lovely Year of Finishes.

I really need to finish this shawl because I plan to bring it to a wedding on September 1st just in case it is chilly in the church. I have finished the main part. Now I need to work on crocheting the trim part.
I finally figured out how I want to set these blocks. I appreciate the advice from those of you who answered my question on how I should set these blocks. The responses gave me some ideas. I also began looking through my books and got some ideas too. So now to get busy.
Now it is your turn to link up your UFOs for this month. I love seeing what you have planned to work on each month. I am so glad you all decided to join me working on UFOs this year.

With Passion,
Carrie P.

Your crochet is so pretty. I have a crocheted shawl that was my grandmother's. I love that they're stylish again. :o) I remember your BOM. I love them.

I am hoping to "graduate" to making a shawl and a poncho this fall... yours looks beautiful! Your quilting projects are too.

Lovin' the lacy look of that pretty crocheted shawl! It will be a beautiful accessory for the wedding. I hope, for your sake, it's overly A/C cooled in the church!

Alas, I didn't even touch my UFO for July - that's what comes of thinking I can get 4 things accomplished in a month - Hah! Know better now. Congrats on finishing those two - both beautiful.
