WIP Wednesday

Here we are at WiP Wednesday again!

This project is an oldie but a goodie - the Sewing Machine Cover! I last worked on this last Fall. Yikes! Time flies!

Here's how it's coming along. I'm really happy with it so far - my first attempt at free/improv piecing and I like it!
Other stuff I have on the go:
Nametag challenge for VMQG. Here's what I've done so far. Gotta get moving - tomorrow is the meeting!

That Girl quilt along: no progress.
New Wave quilt: ditto.
Placemats: whole lotta nuthin'.

I didn't get much done at all except bee blocks this week, actually. Here's the other one:
love in a mist for alliestitch

Go see what everyone else is up to at Lee's!

    Neat bee block! And I love the idea of a nametag, can't wait to see that one all finished up. Your improv work is really nice - isn't that a lot of fun? I love just relaxing and piecing for the fun of it, just going to town like that. :)

    Love the improv quilt top... that would be hard for me to do, letting go and just placing blocks... mebbe I need to try that and loosen up my creative soul!

    The Missouri Star block is cool.... love the fabrics in it!

    I love that star block. I made a baby quilt from four of them and just fell in love with it. I have been itching to make another project using it.

    Great new bee block! Your machine cover looks great. I need to make one and was researching patterns the other day.... I need to figure out if I want it to fit around my extension table or not.

    Great bee block! Just 'popping' over from Poppyprint. Great to 'meet' another Canadian blogger. I'm in DQS10 too!

    I loved your name tag Felicity! I'm always so full of inspiration when I get home from the VMQG meetings!

I *love* comments, and I try to respond to every one by email (but I can't if you're a no-reply blogger!). So go on, don't be shy - leave one to let me know you've stopped by!
