WIP Wednesday

I've been on vacation for 5 days, so I didn't get much done other than some more hexagons for my hexalong with Lynne at Lilysquilts.  Here is the whole big happy family.  I do believe that I will be adding in more solids and some hexagons that are just one fabric.

New members to the crazy family

I also finished the quilt top for my Summer Sampler Series and made a tutorial for my "Mitered Tiled Borders" as I'm calling them.  Here is the link for that tutorial.



Probably as you read this, it's either being basted or quilted....or maybe I'm just being ambitious?
So tell me, who's ready for school to start?!

And I'll leave you with the view from my sewing machine this afternoon.  

The only one who will not be going to school this year:
Peek-a-boo behind the sewing basket...and eating apple sauce on the same table I'm sewing on.  
I'm crazy, I know.

    As Cindy said Apple sauce washers out, & if it means you both sew together I'm all for it, just think what quilts she will be making one day from watching you now???? Lovely bright ones like her mum. Cheers Glenda

    I Forgot to say how interesting the designs are in your fab Hexies. Some are very complicated. I'm working on one but it is now a WIP 18 months old???? Cheers
