Up to Date

It feels good to be up to date on Skill Builder and Bloggers BOM (I wish I could say the same for my Christmas blocks, but for some reason it feels weird working on a Christmas quilt in January).

Here are all of the first 24 Skill Builder Blocks:  I'm liking how they're looking so far.
Here are my first 5 blocks for Blogger BOM (one block is doubled in the collage):
Now that I'm all caught up it's time to turn my attention to my Scrap Attack quilt - it's for a baby boy, and I'm "making" fabric with all of my tiny scraps.  It's a little time consuming, but I think the overall effect will be well worth it.  I got one more block done last night, so I'm up to 4 of 9 blocks made.  It doesn't look like much now, but I'm hoping to whip together a quilt top by the end of the week.
Other projects:
Christmas Blocks - no progress
Halloween Wall Hanging - officially on ice until some inspiration comes

Stats for the Week:
New projects - 0
Completed projects - 0
WIP- 5

Check out what everyone is up to this week over at Freshly Pieced.  I'm also linking up to Scrap Attack!  There's some amazing scrapiness going on over there.  Oh, and Happy February!

  4. I smiled at your comment about your Halloween wallhanging--waiting for some inspiration to strike! So true, isn't it? Creativity just needs some space and time to ferment and bubble up, even though we try to get all productive and everything. (I do think that our productivity contributes, don't get me wrong.) I just looked at your About Me, and you're from Columbus! I was just out near Cinncinati over Christmas, visiting my son who works for P&G. Small world. Okay, now about your quilts--so fun and so beautiful. I love the purpley blues--my kind of colors. And the brights are just beautiful too.
