WIPS Wednesday- A Progress Report

I thought you might like to see how I've been progressing with some of my 

current projects...

Thanks to everyone who took the time to make suggestions about the quilting on 

my "Favourite Things" Quilt.


I chose to do another simple line of quilting to frame each of the blocks.  

You can't tell from this photo but the new quilting is in a fabulous aqua variegated 

thread!

A full reveal, when it's finished, coming up next week, I hope!

I have spent some time on my Christmas Table Runner for a Flick'r swap....



these are two ideas I have been playing around with!

And I added the outer pieces to my Queen of May 'orphan' block...


it's looking a little pink, but I think that it will tone down when I get the corner 

pieces in place!

And here are all my Farmer's Wife blocks living in harmony...


I wonder how many more of these I have in me?

What have you been working on this week?

Linking up Lee over @ Freshly Pieced!

Happy days!
