W.I.P Wednesday

I managed to get four days of sewing in this week and made quite a lot of progress on my never ending to-do list.

Finishes:

 In trying to make one decent gift for my friend at work, I ended up making three attempts! 

I used three tutes:
Noodlehead gathered clutch (top left)
Pink Penguin patchwork wristlet (bottom left)
Confessions of a fabricaholic wallet (top and bottom right)
The left two made the grade for pressies!

My favourite finish of the week is my rainbow coasters, made for my Mum to go with the Stargazey table runner.


WIP's:

Progress:

Star table runner is now at the binding stage and I am just waiting for the fabric to arrive.

I also spent a few hours Sunday and then again yesterday afternoon finishing the hand quilting on my Brit quilt swap mini.  All I have left to do on this is bind and finish the label for the back.

BQS label progress
No progress:
  • EPP hexie cushion - I am saving this for my hols next week.
Upcoming projects:
  • Summersville quilt - Probably September's project now!
  • LMQG August challenge - something Paper pieced
  • Ruby Star vinyl bag
That's it now until next Monday for sewing for me. I have crammed all of my August on-calls into one hellish week :(.

Linking up with Freshly pieced WIP Wednesday.
