WIP Wednesday 7.17.19

I think I was productive this week.  Here's what happened.

I won the Wings of Spring blocks in the Block Lotto back in March (2019).  I only needed one more block to make the suggested quilt layout by Sophie.  I moved that project along this week.  I found the blocks accidentally when I was looking for my OMG quilt (next photo).


I wasn't planning on working on this quilt yet, but I continue to root through boxes and bins of projects trying to find the bag with my July OMG project...  It looks like this:


It's a beauty!  I hope I find it in time to finish it before the end of the month!

While searching for the above, I also found a Ziploc bag full of  blocks that I made during a QA with Beth at Love Laugh Quilt back in 2014.




I longarm quilted and advanced a green patchwork quilt for a customer.


I'm putting a fun design on it called Mola.  It's an R&S board (now Urban Elementz.)



Here's my Ohio quilt on the line.  There are special cities to our family (and/or Ohio landmarks) that have the names of the cities embroidered on them.  This was one of my slow-stitching projects.


This quilt was planned for our son.  After I added the grey inner border and the red border it was bigger than I anticipated but just happens to fit our California King bed.  Next I need to make a back.


I finished Clue # 1 in the SSSSQ -- a mystery quilt along with Kevin the Quilter.


I finished a pink Soul Searching block.  Pink is the color this month for the RSC19.


I finished longarming this quilt for a customer.  It turned out great.  I quilted it with Loopys.


The cleaning of the longarm room continues.  These bins need to be sorted into light, medium, and navy blues so I can start on the first clue of the Mosaic Mystery QA at Meadow Mist Designs.


I currently have 67 on-going projects.

You are getting a lot done on many different projects. I like your Ohio quilt! Did you design it or was it a pattern?

I wasn't as productive as you with quilting this month! Isn't it amazing what projects we can find when we are looking for something specific. All your projects are extremely nice. I am searching boxes and totes for items and coming up with more things to work on. Keep up the great progress.
