WIP Wednesday {22}

Another Wednesday already? With a house full of family visiting this weekend most of my quilting was in my head! Lot's of planning and block prep. Oh - and seam ripping.
Finished this week:
do.good stitches blocks! They are waiting to be mailed now. This will be an interesting quilt to see come together because the white blocks will form patterns.

In progress:
Sew Sweetness Sew along- This was where I did all my seam ripping. The lining I added made the gathers way too full and was totally not flattering on me. I'm am pear shaped and this made me a super-pear! Plus all that fabric made the dress really heavy. I had to rip the zipper, the entire side and then the skirt. This time I'm going with the tunic like Kim made here (i love this!). I reduced the amount of gathers and got rid of the lining. I already have a little sweater to match my dress, let's just hope the tunic works for my hips!

Supernova Quilt along - I did a lot of tweaking on this and finally started sewing the blocks together. I think I may be taking this one to the PMQG sewing day on Saturday to finish. Here's one of the blocks I changed up a bit.

Postage Stamp quilt - need to get this basted for sewing day also. And I hope to get my binding all cut and ready.
Pretty {little} pouch swap - I got my partner and I think I've picked out my pouch design. I'm going to make a trial to see how it goes together for me.
(3x6) bee - I may have done a little too much searching for this one. I've got too many block ideas and I'm having a hard time narrowing it down to just one! I may just do the Sunrise Star that I did a tutorial on.
PMQG Charm Pack Challenge  -  Our challenge is to use this charm pack of Robert Kaufmann Brights and all we can add are prints. Again, I think I know what I want to do here, just need to execute it.

PMQG Pillow Swap  - This is my pile of fabrics for my pillow. I'll show the pillow after we do the swap. It's almost finished. I need to square it up a bit and put a back on it and I should be ready to go.

New this week:
Quilt for my mom. I'm super excited about this one. The fabrics have been ordered and are on their way to me! I'll tell you all about it when they arrive. So nice to have someone write you a check to order fabric. ;)


Pending:
curtains
Amy Butler bag
boy burp cloths 

Total WIP's this week: 11

On a separate but quilting related note, my sweet hubby agreed to get me EQ7 for Mother's Day (!!). Anyone out there running it on a Mac? Just curious how to make it work. I've heard something about bootcamp? I'd love if you could fill me in. I know once I get my hands on this software, I'll want it to work.

You can see how everyone else is doing over at Freshly Pieced.
