Between shoveling snow, photography class and painting walls, I feel like this year has gotten off to a slow start for me sewing-wise. So if for no one except me - a WIP Wednesday is sorely needed!
I did finish up my Hanging Around wall quilt. The pattern is in my book and I used the Botanics line with some peeks of Charlie Harper fabric thrown in...
Next up in my quest to use some scraps and stash fabrics this year, I started making Economy Blocks using the tutorial from Red Pepper Quilts. The blocks are colorful, fun, but slow-going especially in the cutting phase.
Luckily, I cut the remainder of my blocks the other night, so things should move along soon. I'm making 90 blocks {9 x 10} - a nice lap size for the kiddos.
A bit at a time, I'm piecing the blocks for my Gypsy Kisses quilt from Material Obsession 2. I have some tricks I've discovered along the way - let me know if any of you are interested!
I pulled out my 2013 BOM, Lucky Stars, last week and happily discovered I had 12 blocks completed {I was procrastinating on this one because I thought I had one more block to make!}. My sashing had been stowed away, so it was a quick job to sew these together!
And my quilt top pile has seemed to grow again {how does it do that??}. I chose my Kaleidoscope first, got it basted and started quilting.
That's it for this week! Linking up to Lee at Freshly Pieced!
