When I go on Post or am with my Military buddies they always have acronyms and I feel lost.... It's a language unto its own. as a Quilter - I now have my own language... yep - my own acronyms and letters and I'm going to talk like that and see if they can follow......
We live in a great Rural area - with a school that pretty much is the town. The FFA is a BIG part of that school. In May we have a Livestock show and fundraiser for FFA. I was asked to make a donation ( auction quilt) and in my head - I had LOADS of time.
Then I looked at the calendar - and , well, I was wrong....
So.... My DWM ( Design wall monday) and my April ALYOF ( A Lovely Year of Finishes) will be:
To make an FFA(Future Farmers of America) Quilt..... Wish me luck....
( PS - this is on the floor, because I refuse to take my design wall stall project down)

Good luck getting your acronym quilt done by May!
Don't apologize for the DW... I use the ironing board, floor, computer table, couch, and the portable design wall (large sheets of foam core) on pictures for a DW. (Judy lets us get away with those as DWs.)
So sew away. Hope you get it done in time.

I enjoy seeing other quilters putting their skills to use for charity. Good for you. Just wondering about the lettering on the FTA quilt. Is that a pre-printed panel or applique? Nice job so far.
Good luck! Hope all your acronyms will turn into a quilt ASAP
I ALWAYS use the floor. Don't know IF I would want a WALL. ;)
Doesn't it always happen that way, some how all those months suddenly become just weeks before you need to be finished?
