How does a project become a UFP? Well, usually it's something that was too time consuming. However there are many other reasons as well. It could have been more difficult than it first appeared and you needed to learn more before continuing it. It may have been larger than your eyes perceived. Perhaps pattern is difficult to read. Maybe directions aren't as concise as you would like them to be and it leaves you wondering.

We've all done it and we've all had them. Now question is what do we do with them?

I had a UFP for about 2 years, then one day as luck would have it my curious toddler lost some of floss and a page of instructions for me ~ and first thought in my mind was GREAT, I can Finally throw it out! Which is exactly what I did with it, threw it out. This is our first option for your dreaded UFP ~ throw it out.

Now you may think this is harsh but if it's been hanging around long enough to down right annoy you its time to part with it. If your stitching (or any other craft) for relaxation and you dread even looking at project that is hiding in bottom of project bin then it is defeating its purpose. We want to enjoy our crafts, relax and relieve daily stress.

1-2 yds. of print outerwear fleece 1-2 yds. of a solid outerwear fleece Tape measure rotary cutting supplies if you have them, if not that is okay, just use tape measure and a pair of scissors

How to make

*Square your fabric edges by folding corners to meet flat edges and trimming to square it up.

*Remove selvages (fabric fray)

*Place two fabrics over each other, wrong sides together.

*Cut a 5" square from each of 4 corners

* To cut fringe, lay fabric on rotary cutting mat, (keep both together, you can pin them in canter if needed, if you have a rotary or scissor that will cut through both yards at once) and cut strips 1 inch wide and 5 inches deep whole way around fabric. If your rotary or scissor wont cut both at same time, that is okay just make sure to keep your strips evenly spaced.
