WIP Wednesday 9.17.14

Things are calming down with school back in session.  I am tackling household projects and getting back into the swing of things in the quilting world.  I only have five more things to do on my TO DO list at the bottom of this page to get caught up with my BOM's!  (I know, two lists are confusing... but that is how I keep organized.)

I'm a little confused why my pictures aren't loading...  I think Blogger changed again while I was sleeping.  It is looking like I can't copy/paste from the past week's blog posts and might have to upload them via Picassa...  Grrrr.

I finished my Born on the 4th quilt -- and found it a new home!  It was in McCall's Quilting, May/June 2014.

 

I like the motion that the Circle Lord Swirls gave it in the quilting.

 

I finished another Picadilly Circle block.  This one was orange for the RSC14.

 

 

I finished the Evergreen (tree on the right) to complete the row for the Quilt Doodle Designs 2014 BOM.

 

 

I also completed the candy row fort he Quilt Doodle Designs 2014 BOM.

 

 

My Market Day quilt is headed back to the frame.  I think I am going to quilt it with small (1") cross hatches.  I just can't decide how to quilt it...
