Wedding Quilt Progress

 So it has been two weeks since I posted about my new Wedding Works in Progress . . . and I am happy to report that progress is being made!!  Honestly, I wish that there were more progress to share, but there is a lot of "Happy Quilting Pattern" going on as well right now, so  this is what I have squeezed in between.  

The  Folktale Layer Cake Signature Quilt top has been put together.  I am planning to write up a Free PDF Pattern with this one to share with all of you.  It is going to be so cute at the reception table!!  Now just to quilt it, I am thinking leaving the "blocks" unquilted and little curly q's around each block.  So ya, I need to get a backing made and then get this on the longarm so I can check one thing off the list ;) 

 
Next up . . .  the Nordic Nights quilt in Woodland and Wildflowers .  And I did get all of the cutting done (it's a queen size quilt so there was quite a bit of cutting!)  I whipped up the curves for the half blocks so that I could finish those up, ya know . . .I don't want to accidently mix them up with the full block curves ;)  Now, we are in full swing curved piecing mode!! I like to pin a big stack of curves while watching a game, then I just whip them through the sewing machine and press during another game.  Doing 75 ish at a time makes it so I will only have to repeat the process 4 times :)  


And my Jacks quilt from Fast and Fun Lap Quilts made in a Cowboys Layer Cake is in full stitch and flip mode!!  I love doing tiny little stitch and flips.  It is always fun to see how just a little 1 1/4" square can really make a design difference.  I have been using these as my Leader and Enders for those "Happy Quilting Pattern" projects, and I am super thrilled with how many have already been "snowballed" just doing leaders and enders!!   So ya, some for sure progress is being made!! 


There are 52 days until the wedding so I am feeling good about where things are right now :)   And speaking of the wedding, Jessi and Trey just had engagement photo's taken and I just have to share one!!  Aren't those two just so cute :)   I told Jessi this is their "Pride and Prejudice" shot, if ya know, you know!!     So looking forward to  September 20th :)  


So what projects are you working on this week?? 
Pin It!
