Finished:
{Sew} Beautiful bee block for Angela
do.Good.Stitches blocks
Birdie Stitches March block
Mending Mr. Dinosaur - He's got feet now, but you'll have to take my word for it, I haven't been able to wrangle him away for a proper foot-featuring-photograph :)
Megan's secret mini quilt (which she should get today, so stay tuned for a reveal tomorrow)
In progress:
Twin baby boy quilts - I've got all of my cutting done and began the piecing process. I suspect you'll be seeing some quilt tops later this week, the piecing's going by so quickly...
3x6 bee blocks - I headed back to the drawing board on these blocks this week. Just not feeling passionate about what I made last week. I dug through my sketchbook and this block I drew back in January jumped out at me, so I went ahead and made it. I fouled up the center piece a little bit (that's why it's so skinny), but that's why I made a block for me first. Now that I've got the kinks ironed out, I've got just six more blocks to go! Let me know if you guys are interested in a block tutorial :)
Goody Bag Swap - I've done a lot of Flickr-stalking this week, trying to read my partner better, and I think I need to stop procrastinating and start just sewing. I think I'm going to stick with the Wasp bag I had intended, and use some gray linen paired with some bright patchwork or do a simple market tote with some patchwork somewhere. Can you tell how indecisive I'm being on this one?
Totally on hold:
Single Girl - I'm still waiting on the local long-arm machine to ready for rental, though I'm vaguely considering hand-quilting this or straight-line quilting this one...
Super secret project - Working on some more math, nothing too exciting yet. Stay tuned!

I so love your 3 year old's answer as to where the time went! That block for Angela is amazing and the colors are so beautiful. I love the little birdie block. I have been printing them off but have not started any of them yet. The spiderweb is looking good.
ReplyDeleteYou've been crazy busy! Everything looks awesome.....especially loving that top block!
ReplyDeleteYou have beautiful WIPs :-) I especially like the Birdie Stitches March block. I started out in embroidery and I'm just about to dip my toe into patchwork and quilting so this block is appealing on two fronts! :-)
