WIP Wednesday {6.6.12}

I kinda can't believe it's June! It's blowing my mind a little. We are pretty run down around here, fighting illness and whatnot, so I am feeling less motivated to sew the past few days, but hopefully it will pass and I can get back to it. Mostly I've been working on swoon blocks, but I did manage to get a couple other things done.

Completed:

Skill Builder - block 33

You can see the full post about it here, with my others for this round. I didn't love this one, but I am glad that I tried it. I still kind of want to do a big lone star quilt, but now at least I'd have a better idea what I would be getting myself into.

Possibly the most boring thing I have ever made. He wanted super simple and neutral so that's what he got. I am waiting to hear how it worked out. I used this tutorial but used a special shock absorbing foam inside. It came out alright, but not great.
 
New:

I volunteered to make another for another friend. Who gave me free creative reign :) Can't wait to get to this one! It is not at the top of the list though, so we'll see.

Still Going:

This is what the bulk of my energy went into this week, and I am halfway done the blocks with another ready to sew.  I love it. A lot.

I am finalizing size details on this and then I will {hopefully} be off and running. I hope since I don't have all that much time....



Waiting:

*circus baby quilt
*wedding quilt {just ideas circulating....}


On top of all this sewing, there are some other things I need to work on, like my little one's first year scrapbook {why yes, she is going to be 2 in a few weeks}. So I need to do a bit of planning to fit it all in I think. Happy Wednesday!
