WIP Wednesday

I'm putting this out there, because if I don't it might actually languish, like the other quilt, 3/4 done...... I'm just not into the quilting part of quilting. I like the brainstorming and the color selection and the piecing but the quilting, not so much. Anyway, this is the top of the quilt I ended up with after the Block-a-palooza quilt along. I promise to finish it, eventually!!!!! I'm linking this to the WIP Wednesday blog. Check it out here.

  6. Love your WIP! The thing I don't love so much is binding! I always have issues with that, which makes me procrastinate finishing my quilts :)

  8. Wow, I love everything about this quilt. My favorites are the designs in the outer border. I really think that sets the whole quilt off. Good Job~!

  10. Whoop Whoop! Gorgeous! I started the Block A Palooza, but got hung up with the appliqued flying geese. Not that I can't do it, but for some reason, I stopped there. You've inspired me to pull the blocks out, rummage around and find the other patterns, and go for it! Love those fabrics!!

  11. Yeah for you for getting your blocks into a flimsy! I like the way you set the border with the added piecing. SUPER...

  12. Whoop! Whoop! The flmisy is just gorgeous! Mind you, spending all that money and time on fabric and then stopping just before the finish line... If you don't like the actual quilting, that's what machine quilters are for! I'm sure there's one near you. It doesn't hurt to ask, "What will this cost to quilt?" An all-over design is the most cost effective. Go for it!

  14. Great quilt, but, I still want the spring sewing machine cover you showed before (and at the top of the page). Whoop! Whoop! You'll get it quilted soon.
