WiP Wednesday - Echo Echo

Oh my stars and garters.

Let's just ignore the things I got done this week. 'Cause this WiP Wednesday brings the news that I won Lee's Echo FQ Giveaway.

I can't even tell y'all what I'm going to do with it because I didn't think I'd win!

I'm gonna have to start planning.

Which I've been doing too much of I think. I thought of three mini quilts I want to do while I was sewing last night. The word "mini" is deceptive. Because they're rather intricate. At least that's what my napkin sketches are telling me...

I write on whatever is available. My "idea box" is filled with the craziest items.

Oh man.
Echo.

I think I've got it out of my system.

Time for a Roundup:


Ongoing:


ZZQAL: Pffffffffftttttttttt. Do I even need to tell you I didn't work on it? 


FWQAL: There were 44 triangles involved


Birdie Stitches: I printed all the patterns out. Since I'm so behind. I'm thinking about going through my fabric and recutting in all polka dots.

Cranberry Pillow: Ugh. That's all. Ugh.

Less Than Three + Bottled Rainbows: Both just sitting in their baskets. Waiting. And Waiting.

But! Over the weekend I finished my table runner for the SewHappyGeek table runner/wall hanging swap.

It's a color combo that I wouldn't have thought to use on my own.

And thank you everyone so much for the comments last week on the two fabric stacks. I did end up going with the first set.

And I love it.

I was sad to see it go.

It was the first time I'd done any sort of string quilt design.
I think I'm a little addicted. 

Linking up with the fabulous Lee like always.

Completed: 1
