Ok, this is not a Sci-Fi party... And it is also not about United Farmers of Ontario, readers!
It's about showcasing our (un)finished projects?
Why (UN)finished?
Well, it is great of course if we finish what we planned in time. But, sometimes, the objects are unfinished because we stumble upon a sewing challenge, or work on a complex project (Chanel jacket, anyone?)? Often, even a little step can be a great learning experience for all, a blogger and the readers. Maybe linking to an unfinished project, or a post on such, will remind us about, make us touch it, and maybe even want to finish it? Or, maybe, you finish something that was neglected for a while... A week? Two? maybe more? Two years????!
Whether you will link to a finished or unfinished project, it is more about being more productive (disciplined? yuck). By linking directly to our blog, or image gallery, we will be making this pledge! I hope this new idea will help all of us be more productive more organized and more focused on our sewing projects!
So, this is the first Sunday, grab you link and post it here with the help of the link widget below!
If you haven't blogged about your (U.)F.O. do it now! To join the (U.)F.O. party link to unfinished objects, work-in-progress, finished stuff - it should be something that took longer than planned! And don't forget to get the badge:

For the most dedicated star troopers, here are some tips on how you can spice up your UFO-Party images:
Wear UFO-shaped badges with a little green man at the wheel to create excitement among blog readers for the festivities to come.
Green alien heads can be worn with your UFO. Use foil cutouts to create creepy metallic eyes.
Creating an alien background is easy with bright green crepe paper that is strung all about the house. If you have children, they can help you decorating foil pie tins to make cute U.F.O.s to hang from the ceiling.
Crepe paper in yellow and black can warn your blog readers of the recent U.F.O.crash site.
Readers can be offered Area 51 staff blog badges to wear throughout the party. They can individualize each with a Polaroid picture of themselves taken as they read your post.
Make an even better alien background by making space pictures on large black poster boards speckled with white for stars and brightly colored spheres for planets.
Brightly colored balloons can be blown up to different sizes and even have colors added to create planets. Hang the planets around the house to create a party solar system. A large yellow balloon can be hung in the center of the room to form the center of your festive universe. (for more inspiration, visit http://boysbirthdaypartyplanner.com/AlienParty.html)
To inspire you even more, here is a video dedicated to all (not so)supersonic sewers ;-) performed by my most (truly the most) favourite rock band
Enjoy the party!
