WIP Wednesday! Yep- double checked. It's Wednesday.

It's Wednesday again!
Crazy how fast time is moving !


 I know I always say that but...it really is going fast, even in this time of quarantine.


I think the hardest thing during this time of isolation is missing our family & friends. 
While our day-to-day working has pause, Life has not. 
Birthdays, Births, Deaths....things are still going on.

My heart breaks for those losing their parents & loved ones during this time. 
I know things will get better; and I don't mean to be all serious. 

And there are ways we can still see each other; online, video calls, etc etc. 
And for now the mail service is still working, so we can even send little gifts in the mail to people!
(Properly sanitized, of course!)

I have a few projects for gifts I can't post yet. But in the meantime...
I've been doing lots of little alterations this week. You know...finally mending pants, hemming jeans, altering tops, etc etc etc.

I always have excellent help in the sewing room.


So it's WIP Wednesday where you can post your progress, or link up with your recent posts!


Separate but Together!

WIP Wednesdays - Netflix & Sew...

Hey all! It's Wednesday!!
WIP day...and.... a *gasp* ....confession....


I've had a thing for Jason Bateman since he was on Silver Spoons.


 I was 10. He was 12. Le sigh.
Now I'm ...older. Still have a sweet spot for him. I've been watching Ozark the last few weeks. It's dark. But really good. (And there's scene where you get to see his bum. Woot!)

But I digress.....

Time to get out & dust off those long-neglected or brand new projects!

For me, I'm working on getting through my half finished/half started bin of quilts.

Because it was cold and raining most of last weekend; I ended up getting this one done ahead of time.
I worked on my point matching skills on this one. My first time working with HSTs!

This "Starflower Quilt"  that was originally supposed to be for our wedding bed back in 2015. I started it in 2014,  finished it all the way to the sandwiching, then never quilted or finished.
Here's a photo of the completed block & top:


OF course, all work approved by Muffin.
Completed! I used hot pink thread and binding.

Link up below, show us what you're working on!


You can see the FMQ. Zazi really liked it.


Link up & show off your projects!
