WIP Wednesday #14

After a little break from sewing I'm finally able to give an update on my WIP's.

1.  The Dr. Seuss quilt.  That's right it still isn't finished.  I re-pieced the back, layered and basted it then lost steam.  I am determined to quilt it today during naptime.  Here are more pictures of it:



I promise to not post anymore pictures until it's completed.  (It is cute though)

2.  The Postage Stamp Quilt Along:

I have made two of the strip sets.  Only fourteen more to go!


I am absolutely falling in love with pre-cuts after working on this project!  I would have had to throw in the towel if I'd cut everything out myself!  I was thinking about giving this away as a gift, but I'm definitely going to keep it for myself.  I hope I'm not always so greedy!

Of course there has been plenty of this:


and this:


and a little of this:


to keep me busy the past two weeks! 

We just got word that Graham is coming home this week (probably Friday)!  I know that my works in progress will come to a screeching halt for a little while after that, but it will be so worth it!  I better go work on that quilt right now!

Go see what everyone else is up to at Lee's!

Awwww, the teeny baby stage goes by in a blink. He's such a cutie, I'm so glad to hear he's coming home soon. And looks like you made good progress on the Dr. Seuss quilt, it's going to be darling.

Thanks for linking up to WIP Wednesday, have a wonderful week.
