I’ve been tagged! You’ve probably seen quite a few bloggers participating in the Around the World Blog Hop over the past few weeks, and this week it’s my turn! I was tagged by Michelle, who can be found at her blog From Bolt to Beauty. She’s a new blogger, like myself, and (in comparison to me) has already completed about a year’s worth of quilts and projects! She’s been a huge support and and inspiration as I’ve started writing about my own sewing endeavors, and I hope you check out her site and some of her work!
So now, let’s get started!
1. What am I working on?
Well, there are quite a few WIPs in my dining room right now. It’s probably easier for me to remember if I make a list:
- LIMOD Sampler: My main focus this week is my sampler quilt that I am making as part of a block-of-the-month with my local guild. I decided to add quite a few blocks to the original blocks, and I’m just about ready to sew the quilt top together.
- Then there’s my Diamonds in the Deep quilt top that needs a finish. I’m in talks with an awesome long-arm quilter and getting ready to make the quilt back this week. I’m really excited to see how this quilt looks when it’s all quilted and bound!
- my monthly bee blocks for do. Good Stitches (these were my first and still my favorite!);
- Gypsy Wife quilt – still very much a work in progress, as I haven’t even started any of the filler blocks yet!
- My 2014 Finish Along goals: 1)the Man’s World quilt and 2) my first quilt ever (still sitting unfinished);
- and finally my birds of a feather quilt that are still calling me from the bottom shelf in my sewing closet!
You do lovely work. Your projects are very fun and modern. I spy an arrow!
It’s so much fun to sit in the cheering section and watch these blocks turn into full projects. I’m seriously crushing on your LIMOD quilt and — egads! — it’s the return of Charley Harper. Yay!
All your projects are amazing … love the colors you pick! I hear you about needing a colorful creative outlet.
I’m so glad you found quilting to give your world color and to “feed your soul’. Quilting saved my life (literally – long story)
