WIPs Be Gone, Flower Finish & Sandwich

My least favorite step of quilting is the sandwiching. And yes, I've tried the spray (too messy) and the fusible (too fussy).  The pins work best for me, but oh my aching back!  I still have to do big ones on the carpet and I'm getting too old for that.  I really must research a good table to buy.  Where did you get yours?

Despite all my groaning, I did manage to cut 6 battings for some tops and sandwiched WIP #1. I used all of a roll for a king size quilt - 120 x120 for those six.  So glad the WTBQ pile came down.

My Two BOMs in One is ready to be quilted.  I'll start on that tomorrow morning.  And I picked out the next two wips I'll be working on.  I'm going to make a pillow cover out of that crane block (#4). The appliqued blocks (#5) are ready to be put together with sashing for my July wall hanging. And I finished another hexagon flower for WIP#3. Phew!

How are you doing on your WIP?  Would love to see - doesn't have to be a finish, but we'll admire those, too.  Linky below - remember it doesn't have to be a new post, just one that shows your WIP.  Ends Monday, midnight. Since I finished a flower I'm linking to Amanda's Finish it Friday and Sarah's Can I get a Whoop, Whoop? Lots of eye candy there.

Woo Hoo! My Wip has gone to the WTBQ Pile

WIP is gone! Now I didn't say finished, but the top is made and is waiting to be quilted.  I hope to get  to it soon because it has to be shown soon.  Maybe by Friday.  I just couldn't wait to show you.  I wished I had had a bit more of the background so that the last border could have been 1/2" wider, but it wasn't meant to be.

Off to pick another UFO I can make into a WIP. I'm linking to Esther's WoW. She has a beauty there. Go and visit.

PS: The GYB giveaway is still ongoing. You can read about it here.

This n That Week 5

 The Grow Your Blog Giveaway is still on.  So many blogs over there!  You still could win the book by going here. Gosh a whole month of 2015 gone?!  Where does the time go?  I used a half yard for that last border of my first WIP now a WTBQ top. Then in my frenzy used another 3 yards for those B³quilts. And lastly, I made three blocks for a friend to whom I'm sending orphan blocks. So my destashing was 4.08 yards for a YTD total of 13.96 yards.

My design wall has my WIP #1 back on it.  I've made three sides of that border. Hope to finish it up this week, but if life gets in the way, that's all right as long as I have some progress to report on Friday.  It's too dark for photos tonight, but if I get a chance in the coming days I'll show you some of those other B³quilts tops.

I'm linking to Judy's Patchwork Times.  See you there!

Another WIP I need to get finished.
