WIP Wednesday

Another week and I wish I had been able to finish something, but I've been spreading the love (very thinly) around and working on a few things, with not a lot to show for it, and spending way too much time procrastinating. It was too hard to make a decision, so I spent hours on the internet, finding inspiration for lots of new projects that I really shouldn't start until I finish a couple of my WIP's.

I worked on another starflower.

To add to these

I've finished 16 and have another 6 prepped and ready to sew when I find the time. I've also prepped lots more of the dotty diamonds. These will all be added to this

Hand quilting Tiggly Winks.

I'm not enjoying it. I started it, so I have to finish it, but I'm not happy with my stitching and just as I get into a rhythm I invariably have to stop and when I go back to it, the size of the stitches are all over the place.  I'm persevering with it though as I really want to be able to hand quilt in the future,  I'm treating this as my big learning curve. Sorry no photo this week.

The Material Obsession BOM block 2 is coming along, no photo until it's finished.  So far so good. The English Paper Piecing was fine for the inside circle. I'm going to try hand sewing the outer circle.

I bit the bullet and started quilting the circles quilt. I've quilted all the circles and was trying to think of how I wanted to quilt the background. This is where most of my indecision happened this week. Hopefully I'll have the quilting finished in the next couple of days. I really enjoyed playing around and practicing fmq beforehand. The machine has been a dream to use. Here's one of the circles. I created a loose spiral as I don't want this quilt to be heavily quilted.

I've signed up for a couple of small swaps, so I'll be able to have a play with something new in the next couple of weeks, the Mouthy Stitches Swap and the Name Game swap . I'm sticking with my plan - No new big quilts for 2012

Thank you to Lee for holding the linky party and helping me get through my WIP's. There's no way I would have worked through these projects if it wasn't for this weekly show and tell.
