Other ongoing projects:
Farmer's Wife QAL - Officially 34 blocks finished now...but block #35 requires needle-turn applique, which is not exactly on the top of my To Do list...
Sewing Summit swaps - I've got all my plans sketched out for the various zippy pouches I'm putting together for some Sewing Summit pals, and my fabric is in lovely little stacks now. I'm looking forward to digging into this one this week
100 Quilts for Kids quilt - All quilted, just need to bind it now.
Ryan's Guy quilt - Oh yes, it's still sitting in my sewing room, all folded up nicely, on top of the backing I made, with the binding fabric on top. As soon as I can get over this newfound bag addiction, I am hoping to wrap this one up.
New this week:
A little baking - I'm cooking up a super yummy solids project, stay tuned for more!
Tote bag - After finishing off that Weekender, I felt the itch to make another bag, something less labor-intensive, but still pretty, so I picked up Michelle's awesome Nikki tote pattern and I'm looking forward to having a cute everyday bag to use!
