Aussie WIP Wednesday

I'm going to attempt to do this more often as a way of encouraging myself to get some sewing done! I have a few projects that I need to finish, especially as we get closer to the end of the year and the dreaded festive season!

 

Yesterday I sat down at the machine and finished sewing these rows together.

 

This will end up being a queen sized quilt for my niece who turned 21 this year. Yes, turned - I'm running late! It's one of two 21st quilts I'm making for nieces this year. The other top is finished and waiting on this one so I can send them off to be quilted.

This needs pink sashing between each row, the same pink sashing as a border and then another 4.5in border to finish.

I was going to do some more today, but ended up taking my mum (who is visiting from Canberra) down to the beach with chairs, coffee and books instead. Maybe tomorrow...

Do you have something you're working on you'd like to share? Pop over to Little White Dove and link up or leave a link in the comments here. I'd love to see what you are working on - hopefully it'll inspire me to keep going!

 

The Aussie WIP Wednesday

Today I thought I would play along with Little White Dove's WIP Wednesday if for no other reason than I actually have a work in progress to share! If you want to play along too, head on over and link up!

 This is a quilt top I am working on for my niece who turns 21 this year. In fact I have 2 nieces turning 21 this year and hopefully they will both end up with quilts! This will be a queen size top that I will then get professionally quilted. It still needs a border of rainbow squares followed by another border of white. I really enjoyed watching the pinwheels come together - they are so easy to chain piece! With any luck I will get a chance to work on this a bit more over the next couple of days. the 3.5" squares for the rainbow border are cut, just got to piece them now!
