things I'm working on

Scrappy trip along quilt #1
30 blocks done, waiting to get another Chicopee design roll so I can keep going. Right now it's about 1 part Chicopee, 2 parts stash and I'd rather not dilute it out any more than that.


Scrappy trip along quilt #2
Dubbed the "circus clown" quilt. 12/12 blocks done, just need to assemble the top and get it quilted and bound.


2 doll quilts for my nieces
These will both be English paper pieced and need to be finished and shipped in time for Valentine's day, my eldest niece's birthday. And of course her little sister gets one for her dolly, too!


Lozenge EPP pillow cover
I just have a few inches of hand stitching left for the appliqué and then it's on the washing/drying and squaring up before I assemble the pieces. It will have an envelope closure and will fit a 20" pillow.


Random 12.5" blocks
I have three so far and need to make a fourth before these blocks hit the mailbox and go on an adventure. More on that later. Find a tutorial for the heart block over at modernhandcraft.com (I used 3.5 inch sub squares for mine).



That's my round up of active WIP's. There are a bunch of others but I figure they fall into the UFO category since I haven't touched them in a while and don't plan to any time soon!

Linking up with Lee's WIP Wednesday :D
