WIP Wednesday #29

WIP Wednesday at Freshly Pieced


Finished!
Three cushions for a swap. (And, incidentally, Celebrate Colour.)

Celebrate Colour Cushions - finished!


They were posted yesterday; I hope the recipient likes them!

Progressing

Mum's Imperial Star Destroyer Quilt

The main body of the top is all sewn together!

Mum's Impstar - finished top centre!


However, I don't like the white sashing as the edge of the quilt, so I'm adding a darker border. Fabric is on order and will hopefully arrive before long...

I was hoping to have it done before Christmas...

Charmed Prints

After my kerfuffle last week about looking for a dark backing, I went with white instead. *makes handwavy motions*

French Lace Batiks & Modern Basics
The new project! Cut, strip-pieced, joined, and blocked!

I've also squared up the Harvest HSTs - hurrah for progress!

WIP blocks - french lace and harvest HSTs


This Week's Plans
1. Arrange and sew together Harvest HSTs.
2. Finish French Lace Modern Basic quilt. (Need a less unwieldy name for this.)
3. Get next feature blocks of Charmed Prints quilt done and start row assembly.

It's been a busy week, and it's gonna be another one ahead.

How are you doing with your WIPs?

  5. I usually just look really quick and move on...but those pillows caught my eye and that quilt stunned me. The fabric is awesome and I love star quilts. Good job...I am jealous of your mom. I became your follower so I could keep up with what you are doing. Thanks for sharing with us.
