So many things I want to get done, fewer and fewer days before our arrival....agh!
I mentally had a list of things I wanted to achieve before Baby arrives and this week I managed to tick one off of that list. I finally finished my Thread Along quilt.
You can find more information in Monday's blog post and if you'd like to make your own all of the information is on the Thread Along page.
But the other projects remain Works in Progress. I have three main ones: the City Sampler quilt - I've started sashing my blocks together and I'm half way done, but this is my least favourite part of the quilting process, so going is slow. I don't have any photos at the moment, because it's so big already!
My "three-birds-with-one-stone" quilt which will be my entry into the Pantone Radiant Orchid quilt challenge, but is also a baby quilt for friends of ours whose little girl arrived a few weeks ago. If it doesn't get done before Baby, it may never get finished, which would be a shame because I love the colours scheme (I'm not done with these colours yet) and the design (you can read more about the design in my earlier blog post about these blocks).
Today I've finally added the applique. The purple is sewn down, the blue and pink just ironed on at the moment. It needs another border, but I'm not quite sure what yet. And I'm hoping for quilting inspiration to strike some point soon!
And of course, I need to finish our quilt for Baby. I've now quilted more than half of the stars....
Linking up with WIP Wednesday! And off to check out what everyone else has been working on.

The two sets of petals in the bottom right are not as light as they seem to appear in this photo... |
