Now for the unfinished business. I have a few works in progress, so I'm joining W.I.P. Wednesday over at
Freshly Pieced. I don't have many, since I have had as hard of a time starting a quilt as finishing one.
Here is my list:
Cheryl and Steven's wedding quilt. They married in 2004. I've completed 4 applique blocks. Why did I think it would be a good idea to try hand applique for the first time with that one? I. Really. Dislike. Hand. Applique. Or at least I did. I started working on it again a couple of months ago. I decided hand applique was not all bad. However I'm not so happy with my color choices. Now I don't know if I want to start all over or trudge through with what I've got.

Random swirling pinwheel thing. I made a block in a quilt class to learn a new technique. That was maybe 3 years ago. I don't remember the technique I supposedly learned. This will most likely stay as is. Or become a pillow.
Hedgehog baby quilt. The top is finished.
Little Apples baby quilt. The top is finished. (
Oh, Fransson! pattern).
Green and Blue premie quilt for the local hospital's NICU. Cut, and begun piecing.
Even scarier than listing my W.I.P.s is the fact that now I've put my blog out there. Heck, I haven't even told my mom, husband or friends about it. I'm new to this so be kind.
Happy Thanksgiving! First, I'd like to express gratitude for my family, especially for my Sugar Bear. I am so happy to be a mom and I love my little guy. Now on to quilty things. I just finished up a couple of pot holders. This counts for a few new things I've tried. 1) making pot holders; 2) quilting the top; 3) making a pineapple block (super easy with this special ruler I got at the local quilt show this summer). This is also the first time I've linked to TNT Thursday. Enjoy everyone's posts.
