I finished this baby quilt in August for my niece's baby Eligh.  Venturing more into more solids and less prints.
Fun!!

Finally - WIP update

I have a good handful of WIP's....It's really frustrating to see all the finished works of many blogs that I follow and all the work they get to finish and post.  Well, I've decided I'm not going to judge myself based on other people's accomplishments.  I will make progress and (try to) not give myself a hard time.  I'm trying... really.

The reason for this post (besides actually posting something!) is that I recently accomplished a WIP that's been lurking around for a couple years!  I wanted to make a wedding gift for my good friends Cindy and Scott.  The quilt top was no problem but because it was bigger than anything I had ever made it's taking me two years to finally get it quilted!  I used "Harley" at Sew Modern (in Los Angeles) and really like my results.  I took these pictures before I trimmed it down. Now it's awaiting the binding!  It's still a WIP but I feel good that I've made progress.  Yay me!




Picking out the fabric for the binding tonight from all my scraps above.  Then more WIP's to be posted soon!
The tutorial I used for my quilt blocks is a pattern from Film in the Fridge's website found here:
