WIP Wednesday {9.19.12}

Can you believe that fall starts this weekend?? I guess the cooler weather is pretty much already here, but it just seems weird that we are almost 3/4 through the year and that it is officially pumpkin and apple season. We will be celebrating this weekend. But I digress, back to the matter at hand. It has been a good week. It is weird to have slowed down and not have a whole lot finished after the last few weeks, but it feels good.

Completed:

fall jacket

I finally got down to it and finished this up the other day. It took a bit of guess work, but it came out pretty good. Far from perfect, but wearable. I'll post more about it Friday after we get some sun and I snap some pictures of the little lady wearing it.

New:

echo baby quilt

I started cutting this the other day. If I'm honest it was to get some string scraps for my tragic kingdom quilt, but that's okay. I haven't thought through it far enough though so I need to do that and keep going. 

Still Going:

tragic kingdom

I have 9 blocks done! I am only doing enough blocks at a time to bring me to the next size just in case I run out of scraps. I am hoping to ultimately get 20 blocks, but I'm not sure I have enough. We'll see. They are going to need some good trimming though. I definitely ended up with some wonky squares.


pillow covers 2&3
Yeah, no rush on these. I'll get to them eventually. Maybe when I get tired of all those little strips. 


Waiting:
*wedding quilt - this is not at all a priority right now, but I don't want to forget it
*baby quilt -inspiration has struck...once I have time to put it together

I love crafting in cooler weather. Not just sewing, but knitting too once cooler weather hits. And in case you are wondering, my socks are coming along, slowly. I only have another 1.5" of the foot before I start the toe. I guess I just need more movie time :) For now I am just trying to make it to this weekend: movie snuggle time, picnic, beginning of fall party....just a couple more days now....
