WIP Wednesday

WIP Wednesday at Freshly Pieced

It's Wednesday again and I feel that I've had a successful week down in the sewing room! 

What I Completed This Week:

Quilts for Kids - 2 quilts in the mail to corporate headquarters...total for the year 13!!

P2 Modern Solids Quilt Along - Thanks to my mom, it is finished. My mom does all my binding for me.....thank goodness as I just don't care for this final part of a quilt.  Thanks Mom!!

Fall Table Runner - I bought a charm pack from my LQS last Thursday for a FALL table runner.
Fabric is:  Saltbox Harvest by Deb Strain for Moda

Here is a close up on the side table in our foyer!


No Progress:

Kaleidoscope Quilt a Long
Farmers Wife Quilt a Long
Quilts of Valor

New Projects:

Christmas Quilt:  I've been wanting to have a Christmas quilt for our living room for a couple of years now.  When Sweetwater came out with their new line of Christmas fabric, I just knew that I had to get "Countdown to Christmas".  I just love this fabric.


Here it is pieced with out the borders.


Sorry such a poor picture.   Here is a close up.


I bought a FQ bundle and only needed 12 FQ of the 32 FQ for this quilt.  So, I have 20 FQ remaining...I'm sure I'll find something wonderful to make with these remaining FQ!



Last Saturday I spent the day at the annual Miles of Pillowcase Smiles event cutting fabric for the ConKerr Cancer Georgia Chapter. It was a success - 280 pillowcases were sewn.


I hope you have a great week!

Cindy

  1. Your table runner is great! I think I actually have a charm pack of that fabric, too. I may have to copy you! I am a huge fan of Sweetwater, too. Can't wait to see your finished Christmas quilt, and see what else you make with that fabric!

  5. Fun! My mom posted a leaf-patterned pieced fall table runner with fat quarters on our blog this week—so nice to use precut fabric! I'm thinking about giving it a try, so we have *something* fall in the house!
