WIP Wednesday...on a Thursday

I was working on this customer quilt when the thread kept breaking.  Here's a pic from the back.  I'll just call it the Veggie Tales customer quilt.



My husband is now working on putting my machine back into time.  I'll probably not be quilting until the weekend.



Hope everything goes smoothly because I have a high school student coming over to quilt her fair quilt next week.  It will be her first time using a longarm.

I made seven orange sand castle blocks this week (pattern by Bonnie Hunter.)



I also made five blocks in darker blues:



I finished the 1.5" orange squares by making them into 4-patches.  This will help in my variety of 4-patches for more sand castle blocks when Angela announces the color for July for the RSC19.



I finished this customer blue and 4-patch quilt and returned all THREE QUILTS to her!

I'm starting a new summer project!!!  Woohoo!!!

Check out all the details on Kevin the Quilter's Blog.  It starts TODAY!!!

I have already decided that one of my colors will be NEUTRALS!!!  I have plenty of them.  This big bin is already handy and by my sewing machine.
