WIPs Are Going, and a Winner

No finish to show this week.  I've had quite a bit of family things to take care of and have spent what little sewing time I had quilting my WIP.  I still hope to get it done by next Wednesday.

I'd say I"m about half done.  I got two sides of a border on a baby quilt and then decided I didn't like it, so they need to come off and cut some more fabric to miter the corners.  And I worked a little bit on more tiny pinwheels.  Hopefully the weekend will let me sew more.

The winner of last week's hexagon papers giveaway is Shelly at Prairie Moon Quilts .  Congratulations, Shelly!  I've sent her an email.

What have you been up to?  Leave me a comment and I'll come by to see your creations.  I'm linking to Sarah's Can I Get a Whoop, Whoop?, Muv's Free Motion Mavericks party,  and Myra's Finished or Not Friday party.  Come, take a look.

Applique Tuesday

Finished the embroidery on this block.  Now to machine applique it.  I use invisible thread.

 The hexie paper giveaway is still open. See my  post. Open til Thursday midnight.

Stay warm, dry or cool - depending where you are. Blessings to you all.

Slow Sunday Stitching & Stash Report

First, a reminder of the hexie paper giveaway going on here. See my last post. Open til Thursday midnight.

Well, I was not even half way to my goal this week - 0.82 yard were destashed instead of 2.  I mainly spent my time quilting my WIP for January, working on my new project for 6+6 in 2018,  hexies for Bliss, a sample chair bag and a string block for Kat's Covered With Love block drive. My new YTD is 2.85 yds destashed.

For My Small World I now have six 2" pinwheels - 10 more to go.
I find making such tiny blocks stressful as they don't come out as good as I would like. Oh, well maybe by the time I've made all of them I'll have gotten better.

For the Sweet Land of Liberty sew along I'm working on a house block. This will be my slow stitching this Sunday. Next will be to add borders to bring it up to size.

I don't have photos of the bag or the string block. They were out of the house before I remembered to take a photo.  I'm linking to Kathy's Slow Sunday Stitching, Cynthia's Oh Scrap!, and QuiltPaintCreate's Sunday Stash.
