This one is really just a teaser. I finally bound the New Wave quilt top after letting it sit in my sewing room since I used the Long Arm machine back in July! I'll show more of this soon, I promise!
And for those two quilts I planned...The first is going to be yet another design from the Practical Guide to Patchwork {I seriously LOVE that book. Did you see Elizabeth's news yet?!}. I am waiting on a few more gray fabrics to arrive, but I will start cutting this weekend.
And this one is either going to be a Drunkard's Path or Half Square Triangle quilt. I just can't decide if I really want to do all the cutting for the Drunkard's Path or not. I love that design, but now that everyone has those fancy GO! Baby cutters, I feel like I live in the dark ages with my rotary cutter and mat ;) I may just need to suck it up and go for it... {Can I get away with not cutting the notches in the center? That is the part that really bugs me.}
My goal is to finish all three quilts by the end of the year. Am I insane? {yes. I'll answer that for you.} Can I do it? {Let's hope so!!}
Of course, I am linking up with Lee for WIP Wednesday. For some reason my button isn't working though.
You're making great progress! And I have to say I went to my local modern quilt guild and Elizabeth Hartman was sitting right next to me and she's just as smart as on her blog - or book! Good luck on your quilts, I have one before christmas and one for new year to do, let's hope we can both do it!
ReplyDeletelove the fabrics you have picked out! I odn't have a go baby either, so don't feel so bad. :)
ReplyDeleteI want to see that finished quilt in all it's glory! Great WIP report!
I can't wait to see that quilt in its entirety!! Maybe Santa will bring you a Go cutter for Christmas? I just got this cool thing in the mail, via ebay, yesterday. It's called the Curve Master, and it's a foot that lets you feed curved edges so you don't have to pin. Really cool, I can't wait to try it...I pretty much lurked around on ebay until I found someone auctioning one off, lol.
ReplyDeleteYou have so much going on. I love it. Good luck getting your quilts done!
