WIP Wednesday



It's WIP Wednesday!










Time to take a look at what was completed and what is now on the front burner this week!

I completed my U R Priceless little coin purse and Blog Hop. Love these little purses and was happy with the way it turned out


I finished all my cutting for all the fabric swaps I am in and popped them in the mail yesterday.

I also sent off my blocks for Hurricane Sandy relief organized by Jennifer over at the Knotted Thread.



Front and center for this week is to finish up my Modern She Made Swap mini for my partner!

Here is the layout chosen, and I finished squaring up the blocks last night, next it will be on to sewing and quilting!


A better shot of the pattern


Lets take a list at the List (with a capital "L" she said ;)

1. Finish up my Flickr fabric swaps by cutting and mailing off.
2  Finish up my U R Priceless Coin Purse and Blog Hop post
3. My Lime and Latte lap quilt: All blocks are made and the layout complete, now on to sewing the top up and quilting: so progress - just not as quick as I thought
4. Cut and piece my orange inspired Flying Free quilt: no progress here :(
5. My Modern She Made 2 Swap: Yes! Progress here, see blocks and layout above. Mailing deadline is coming up soon.
6. New set of scrappy hot pads: yes, there is progress here, the tops are pieced.
7. Craftsy BOM's : No progress here (yet)
8. Commissioned baby quilt: the fabric has arrived and the pattern decided on, so a little bit of progress here. Due by mid-January.
9. New to the list: The Weekender Bag! Yes I am going to make this bag--a bit intimidating by everything I have read, but this is not a rush project. I would like to finish it by March. Now on to scout out some fabulous fabric---or maybe I will do patchwork?
10. New--Not specifically sewing related, but I am researching updating my Blog--updating and a new look! So stay tuned, a fresh look is coming soon I hope!

Linking up over at Freshly Pieced!

Hope you are having a great week!

U R Priceless Blog Hop!

Hello everyone! How's your Friday? Or Saturday morning for our international friends  :)

Mine--so very glad the weekend is here! Rain is rolling in and it is chilly, fall is definitely in the air. But you know tonight I don't care, it has been a busy week and all I want to do is curl up at home and work on my projects! It has been sew long!

Have you stopped by Sew WE Quilt? It is a blog all about blog hops! All kinds of quilting styles participate.  

I stopped by to check out all the blog hops and fell in love! I just had to join in on this one! I have been wanting to make one of these little coin purses so bad and what great Christmas/Birthday/Just Because Gift :)



I have already ordered and received my fabric and frame! Really..bet you could figure that one out already :)
I am thinking that my stash probably has some fabric just waiting to be made into one of these cute little purses too!  I hear there are a few more spots open on the hop if you would like to get in on the action!

Stop over and see Katherine at Sew Me Something Good, here. She will be the cheerleader for this blog hop, or stop by and see Madame Samm of SewWEQuilt here.

Can't wait! Jingle, jingle, I can hear them quarters and dimes, nickles and pennies now ;)

See you soon!
Ginny
