It's WIP wednesday again. Already? Seriously? How can that be?
Do you ever need a vacation when you get back from vacation to catch up with laundry, groceries and life in general like I do right now? Sewing has been minimal, but the fabric has been bountiful, so here's what I got goin' on:
New Projects
1. I'm signed up and raring to go for my first quilt along!
It's the Accross the Sea QAL {read more about it here). Here is my preliminary pull of fabrics. It's a mix of fat quarters and half yard cuts from my stash. Jury is still out on the multi-colored prints...
What do you think?
Progress
1. Rainbow Charm Swap (a.k.a. mission yellow).
I found my yellow and yellow-orange fabric in a fabric shop pit stop along my travels this week!
Yellow - Modern Workshop by Liesl Gibson for Oliver + S for Moda
Yellow-Orange - Strawberry Field by Alice Kennedy for Timeless Treasures Fabrics
Yellow was trickier than I was expecting it to be, but I love both of these! Hopefully my co-swappers will like them too!

I love the colours you've chosen for the Across The Sea QAL! Sky, sea, and sun!
ReplyDeleteI think that the multicoloured prints you have in the pic are fine - although the one in the 'ochre' row is a bit hidden up the back. One or two would be good, but the bulk should definitely be monochromes!
There's something soothing and rich in the colors you've picked. (But, I agree....I like the monochrome better.) And I can't wait to get a piece of the Oliver + S.
ReplyDeleteLove your colors for the QAl! I think the multicolor prints will be great...adds some interest! And I really like the yellows you've chosen. So excited to get those charms!
