WIPs Wednesday- Modern QAL Baby Quilt
So the pieces of the low volume baby quilt I shared last week are now a fully formed quilt top and I want to get all my my quilt wips finished before this baby comes so it now makes sense for me to finish the ModernQAL Solids Baby Quilt that I shared over at ASWC a few weeks ago.
I have the backing sorted and the batting too. So this week I am hoping to get it basted. Just small goals at the moment. We are off on holidays soonish so I've got plenty of non-craft related this on my to do list as well.

WIP Wednesday: Low Volume Baby Quilt Progress
Last week I shared my low volume baby quilt that I am in the process of making.
I wanted to get the quilt top finished over the weekend, but between a last minute invitation to have dinner with friends on Saturday night and the kids soccer games on Sunday by sewing time was cut down to practically nothing.
But never fear, yesterday I got stuck in and finished chain piecing all the squares into 4s and pressing them so they are all ready to be sewn into blocks of 16.
I have done some blocks of 16 already, but I was being lazy and only finger pressing them so that aren't perfect.
But hopefully these next set of blocks I put together will make up for that.
What are you creating at the moment?

WIPs Wednesday: Low Volume Baby Quilt
Well posting about my Dream On Quilt last week certainly worked in forcing me to suck it up and finish it. So this week I thought I would post about yet another quilt.
This one is only a few weeks old though, so nowhere near as overdue as the other one. This is my low volume baby quilt that is in the works for this baby. And all I would like to have done is the top pieced by the end of the weekend.
That sounds easy enough because I have pieced a fair bit of the blocks already. And I am chain piecing most of it so it should come together pretty fast.

WIPS Wednesday: Dream On Quilt
Okay this is mighty embarrasing! This quilt just needs binding and its done. Only binding, but it's been sitting next to my sewing machine with the fabric to be used for binding for months.
So I'm documenting it here so that I am accountable to YOU and I WILL have it finished by the end of the weekend.
How's that for a deadline?
I'm linking up with Little White Dove for WIPS Wednesday.
