WiP Wednesday {10}

Where did the week go?!?  It's already Wednesday! :)  You know what that means....

FINISHED PROJECTS

crazy {9} wall hanging
Lately I have been "haunted" by one bare wall in my sewing area/bedroom.  It stares at me, all day long, just wanting something to spice it up.  Well haunt me no more little bare wall! :)
sorry for the cell phone pictures.  i was in a hurry. :)
For this wall hanging I used some left over blocks from my crazy {9} quilt and added some Kona cotton.  All it needs is to be basted and quilted.  But for now, I really like admiring it on the design wall behind my sewing machine.  That almost counts as a wall hanging right? 
Spiderweb Quilt Top
Yes, that's right.  The top is finished and I will blog about it later this week.  Stay tuned. :)

NEW PROJECTS

postage stamp quilt along
Earlier this week I decided to join in on the postage stamp quilt along.  This is only my second quilt along ever, and I find myself saying "why didn't I join one earlier!?"  If you haven't done a quilt along, I really suggest you do.  It's so much fun seeing everyone's progress on the same quilt!
another cell phone picture. :)
So far I have all the strips pieced and pressed.  The second set of steps was posted yesterday, so I am hoping to get a chance later today to get back at it.

ONGOING PROJECTS

Sliced Coins Quilt Along
The first set of directions should be posted later this week and I can't wait to get started.
I have almost all the blocks pieced and decided on a sashing color.  No new pictures...yet.

  1. I love how your postage stamp is coming along! And your wall hanging is gorgeous. I'm seriously considering doing a wonky 9-patch for this polka dot quilt my son has requested for his birthday, I've only done them once before, but I seem to recall thinking it was a lot of fun. Happy WiP Wednesday :)

  3. Oh, your postage stamp quilt is beautiful! I was thinking I'd like to do one--not as part of the quilt-along, but I could buy my jelly rolls now, maybe? And this is making me really want to...

  5. The wall hanging is beautiful - I love that you used both green and white borders around the blocks, I don't think I would have thought of that.

    Thanks for linking up, have a wonderful week! : )
