WIP Wednesday

It's been two weeks since my last WIP post, and frankly it's almost not even worth posting about my craftiness since then.
I have mastered the art of procrastination and I think I should be in line for a gold medal for being able to waste every spare minute of my time.

I have at least pieced the backing for Tiggly Winks and it's all basted ready to quilt.


I made some binding and I'm now in the process of hand sewing it to the back.
 4 inches done! Only roughly 350+ inches to go
Check back with me some time next year, it should be finished by then! If I'm lucky, sigh....it's taking forever.

Everything else hasn't been touched.

  1. I think you might only get a silver medal as the gold would go to me! If you can expect to finish a quilt by next year as well as working on all those other things then I'm sorry but you are not gold medal standard!! Seriously though I think procrastination is something we are all good at.

  2. Don't beat yourself up Marg! Remember, it's not a race (gold medals aside!) and things will be finished when they are finished! Enjoy the journey, not just the destination!

  4. Well, you've basted a quilt! That's always a bit of a stumbling block for me. Sometimes a quilt sits there for years! before I can get the energy to do it. Love your binding!

  6. I blame the internet - it keeps gobbling up my time. Don't worry, you'll get to it eventually. I agree with Suz - the journey has to be enjoyable!

  9. Deadlines are for crazy people. Take it easy and it'll all get done eventually. You made binding and basted a quilt. That's good enough.

    Progress is being made so stop arse kicking yourself my friend.

  12. I had a giggle at Shays comment - is she making some sort of admission there? I agree with Shirley I think you get heaps done! The Plume quilt is gorgeous - the colours are divine!

  14. I think we can all relate :-) I cut out some material for a quilt some months ago and that is as far as I have got! One day it will get done, its not going anywhere!

  15. You seem to get heaps done, Marg. I am loving the way the binding strips look on the back of the quilt. Your fabric choices are so gorgeous.
