WIP Wednesday 4.9.14

Here's what happened this week:

I'm still making progress on my Super Mario Brothers Quilt at Cora's Quilts.  This is just the first block of the QA.  There's plenty of time to join in on the fun!

I finished this quilt for the H2H Challenge.  It will be going to Happy Chemo.



I have four rows sewn together for the Triangle QA.



I set four FINISH goals for the Q2 Finish-A-Long (one of them being the Triangle QA above)



I completed the Classic Meetings Modern block for April (I'm still LOVIN' these fabrics!)



I finished the star row for the 2014 Quilt Doodle Designs BOM Mystery for April



I made two blocks for the April Block Lotto



I set my Lovely Year of Finishes Goal (which is a different goal than my Q2 goals...)  I need to make something out of that one little block that I removed from this quilt -- You can tell which one!



I can't believe I got all of this done AND attended an out-of-town wedding for my beautiful niece:

 

My brother is the tall dude on the right.

 

Here's a pic of me and my two brothers -- love times like this!
