WIP Wednesday -- Back to School, Kids!!! 8/19/15

School is back in session!!! Look for a lot more quilting coming from me in the near future. The GREAT news is that I have new customers (for my longarm services). I have 15 quilts that need to be quilted for others!! I'm so excited to get the loaded, quilted, and show them to you. I'll need to update my TO DO WIP list. I haven't added them to it yet.

This gorgeous quilt is on my longarm frame now. It is a charity auction quilt for my local quilt guild. I'll get a better picture of it when it's done. Aren't these GORGEOUS fabrics?

Here's what the quilt top looks like -- and that's Phyllis, our guild president.

I got some new chicks!

Then we hatched MORE new chicks!

I made four blocks for my City Sampler At Your Own Pace QA. 96 to go...

I signed up to be a stop on the Blog Hop for Dog Gone Cute QA. Can't resist these pups!!!

I finished step 6 of the Scrap Dance Mystery QA. Easy, peasy, lemon squeezy.

I played along with Bonnie Hunter's leader/ender project - Are you ready to Tumble? I'm making five different rugs for my kitchen. Here's #1. (It still needs quilted and bound.)

I made only one sawtooth block for the RSC15. I need a couple more for this month.
