WIP Wednesday 6.4.14

Good news:  I finished the 2nd Thomas the Train quilt for my LQG and my WIP count went down one more!  Bad news:  I adopted three more Thomas the Train panels...  WIP count up by 3 more...
Here's the first two I finished with the Circle Lord waves quilting pattern.



 
Here's the Thomas the Train panel #3 on the quilt frame.  I'm using Leah Day's RR tracks freehand design on this one.  It's fun to play.
 

 
I made a Bonnie Hunter design Wanderlust block using up scraps for the RSC14.
 

Here's a sample block that I made.  The quilt is called Wanderlust by Bonnie Hunter.  The block pictured below has two green units (Christmas cats and Cheerleaders).
 
Then I made another...  This quilt is REALLY going to be TRUE scrappy -- no control at all except for yellow or orange large stars and maybe red center star points.  Other than that, anything goes.
 

I made this cute flower in a basket block, but it wasn't the right size for our LQG challenge.  I threw it in the orphan box.
