Current Works in Progress -2/2/06

If this blog is to be about quilting, I guess I should add what I'm currently working on.

1. I have a purple and white Baby quilt in the hoop, halfway hand quilting. The baby I intended it for is now about 6 months old, lol. I haven't touched the quilt in about 5 months :-(.

2. I am in the middle of piece a blue and white flannel baby quilt for a baby that is about 3 months old. I'm going to machine quilt that. Hopefully I'll finish it this weekend :-D.

3. Women of the Bible Quilt (WOBQ) I am working on a one-year devotional and quilt over 52 Women of the Bible. Each week we study a different woman and make a quilt block that relates to her somehow (usually the name of the block is symbolic to something in the woman's life and/or character and/or name). I've got two blocks finished, a third partially cut out, and we're already into week 4.

4. Bed Quilt for a very special friend - I got the backing and sashing fabrics at the store the other night. Both are her favorite color and the backing has "Jesus Loves Me" on it. The sashing will go between scrappy denim squares. I've started cutting the denim, but that's it.

5. I've got the fabric and pattern ready to start on a Sampler of Psalms Quilt as well as a coordinating Wallhanging quilt based on Psalm 23. It will be purple, blue, and green (light to medium colors of each) for my bed and above my bed.

6. I've got fabric to make placemats for me and others for presents (Christmas, Bday, etc.) Hopefully I'll get those done :-D.

7. I've got two Christmas tops (wallhanging size) - one is just a panel and the other is a Manger Quilt top I got off Ebay. I need to quilt those both for next year :-D.

8. Swaps - I need to cut and sew 18 blocks for a 9-Patch swap I am participating in. Those are due by the end of March.

That's all for now :-D!!!!
