W.I.P. Wednesday

Its W.I.P. Wednesday again.

I have a confession that I'm not very good at taking photos of things I have finished. Well this week, I finished some gorgeous little hexagon flowers for a friend and sent it off with some material. Its for the Friendship Challenge that I started with my girlfriend that moved away. 
I love this fabric and can't wait to see it come back to me in a friendship quilt. I hope that she loved the hexagons and maybe she will be nice enough to take a photo for a later post. (hint..hint).

So my W.I.P. week went like most weeks, gone before I knew what has happened. I'm still busily working away on my Quilted Fabric Basket but its been slow and I have a deadline to meet to have it finished to send off by Monday.

My DH had two nights away from us and came home with a new toy for his IPad and a request for a cover for both items to be kept together. 
The colour scheme he wants is blue, grey and black. So I did a little shopping and came back with this fabric. 
How gorgeous? There have been some odd looks, but I've told him that it will be ok in the end. Stay tuned for a look at what I make.

As for my list...it is still a list and continues to grow and be less, however I chose to go.
After all, isn't our W.I.P. Wednesday a chance for all of us to stay true to ourselves, identify our UFOs or W.I.P.s and continue our journey of self discovery as quilters and craft enthusiasts.

  2. I can't wait to see what you do for your husband's iPad cover - my best friend just got one and I suspect she'll be asking for a cover pretty soon. Happy WiP Wednesday! :)
