WIP Wednesday

This week is another calm before the storm type week as I wait for the results of voting from last week’s Project Quilting Challenge- Fav Fabric. You can vote for my quilt, and any of the others you like (up to 5 votes) over at Persimon Dreams. I have done a little sewing though. I…

WIP Wednesday

Yet another week has gone by with my regular sewing machine in the shop. It will be 3 full weeks on Saturday. But the good news is, that gave me a reason to talk my husband into actually getting my Featherweight oiled. So, I’ve been using it to create this week’s Project Quilting challenge quilt.…

WIP Wednesday

We, once again, interrupt this #NaBloPoMo for a #WIPWednesday update. Last week, I made up a super fun heart quilt for Project Quilting. You can vote for it this week on the PersimonDreams blog. I also took my Double Wedding Ring quilt out of UFO status and started working on it again. I got all…

WIP Wednesday

With #NaBloPoMo this month, I’ve been a bit of a slacker getting my WIP Wednesday posts up, but I’m happy to report that no only did I remember to write up this WIP post, but I have stuff to share! My everyday sewing machine has been in the shop for the last week. Apparently they’re…

Anna’s Crazy Christmas Blocks – A Progress Post

It looks like I am a bad influence on Anna. I’ve convinced her to try her hand an making crazy patch blocks, and I have to say that I am impressed with her progress so far. Her blocks remind me a lot of the ones in my first crazy quilt. She told me that I…

Rabbit Medallion Quilt – 3rd Border

It has taken me forever to get around to making the 3rd border on my rabbit medallion quilt. Not that the blocks for this border were terribly difficult – they were just churn dash blocks. But, in my defense, I did have to make 36 of them, and I was getting rather tired of making…
