Not so long ago I decided to use one of my oldest bits of unfinished patchwork - a large log cabin square - making it into a table protector for a coffee table. However, we have two square coffee tables so the task didn't just involve making up one, but also creating a second one from scratch so that both tables have a new cover. I changed the design for the second one but used similar fabrics so that they look good together. This is the UFO:
and here are the two table tops, each with a new protector:
Another one which has been lying unfinished for years relates to my attempts to make things from plastic canvas. Finally I've succeeded in finishing something which has a purpose - a tissue box cover.
