WIP Wednesday

Sewing and quilting this week has taken a bit of a back seat due the Easter holidays - 3 little boys who love to fight kinda stop any productive work!

I have managed to get my sewing machine into the house and set myself up in the kitchen so have a go at some sewing...


The HST patchwork top has been basted to some lovely red flowers and I have been trying to quilt, but my needles are all old..... I have an wholesale order of needles on the way... feels a bit crappy not being able to quilt though!

So I have got out my Swoon quilt box:


This is block number 7 that is next up to be pieced! Love these flowers!

So slow progress this week....... what have you been working on?

  1. I understand the frustration when trying to work on something, but you don't have what you need... I broke two needles on my last big quilting project! I love your fabrics.

  3. I hate when I am in the middle of something and I realize I have only one needle left to work with. I might decide to buy in wholesale amounts as well, just so I don't get that disappointing feeling. I'm working on a Swoon quilt as well - mine is princess themed and I have had lots of fun with it as well. I love the flower print for your swoon by the way.
