WiP Wednesday

Okay, how did it get to be Wednesday again? I just don't get how that keeps happening. And tomorrow is MY day on the Ghastlie Blog Hop! I'm so excited. I'm even a bit nervous, truth be told. People have been showing some amazing pieces. I hope my projects hold up. There will be a giveaway too, so be sure to return. A giveaway by me, and a bigger giveaway by Madame Samm herself. She's doing that every day of the hop. Lovely Ghastlie things! Where was I? Oh yeah...

WIP Wednesday at Freshly Pieced

Okay, so what have I gotten accomplished this week... Oh! Well, I made a ...no, I can't talk about it cause it's in the blog hop. Hmmm, I made a...., no, can't talk about that one either. You'll see it tomorrow. Man, what did I do this week that I can talk about? Oh yeah!

I finished my Embroidery 101 quilt top!

I also made a new laundry bag for the kids. Tutorial can be found here.

Again, I have been making some slow filler progress on my red and white hexie quilt you see at the top of my blog in the banner but nothing is connected yet so it seems rather dumb to show it again. I had rather hoped to get it done before the Blogger's Quilt festival but that is looking unlikely unless I just show the top. But I would still have to work like crazy just to get the top done.
I am also working on another tutorial and this one is going to be cool for quilters. We had a visitor do a show and tell at quilting guild Monday night and she showed her version of this particular item she'd made which was extremely cool, so I was much inspired. After finding some ideas online and deciding what I MUST have in it, I'm working on putting together a tutorial for you guys. Hopefully that will be up by the end of the week or next week at the latest. I have to go pick up some more interfacing since I ran completely out. Why is it that interfacing comes in such short widths?! That is so frustrating!
Don't forget to go check out what everyone else is working on....and don't forget to check out the Ghastlie Blog Hop ladies; I have the schedule in my right sidebar. My turn is tomorrow so please come back and visit then as well!
