What Are Quilters Blogging About Today?

 Yesterday afternoon I gave the New Zealand travelog for our AAUW travel group.  All went well.  In the evening I attempted to repeat the presentation via Zoom for P.E.O. but my computer screen kept blacking out.  My P.E.O. sisters were very understanding, I logged back in on my iPad, and the meeting proceeded without the program.  I have a Geek Squad appointment later today!  (And as I type this the computer screen is fine, but I'm going to keep that appointment.)

WWL is a place where you can share photos of quilts you’re working on and get encouragement to finish them from our Wednesday Wait Loss group! As you can see, I’ve been doing this for years and so our group is strong, loves to share, and is very welcoming.

Here’s how it works. Every week I start out by sharing what I’ve been working on. Then I share the projects from the previous week that most inspired me so that they will inspire you too! This is followed by the actual link up where you can ...

Jolie Afrique is finished and so is the Six Quilts challenge.    (The pattern is Jolie and the fabrics are African.) 

The Villa Rosa Designs Six Quilts in Six Weeks Challenge instructions:   finish six quilts from  VRD patterns between April 6 and May 20.  New starts, UFOs, and WIPs are eligible.  

I leaped right on the challenge by finishing a UFO, making the April top-along (a VRD spinoff), and making four more quilts from patterns I purchased.  

It feels so good to complete the challenge three weeks ahead of schedule!

Next project:  an I Spy quilt.  Baby shower is May 24 ...

It's a flimsy!  

I auditioned a couple of red/green prints for the border but nothing looked right (or I didn't have enough) so I used the background.  

64" x 72".  6 yards in all.

Here's a closeup.   

Several people have commented on how small the 9ps are.   I cut 1-1/2" strips and the blocks are 3-1/2 (3" finished).   I don't think that is that small.  Maybe it's all the practice I had with the mini-9p swap I participated in for so many years.

I chose the purple batik for the sashing almost without thinking.  I used nearly all of it (just 4-1/2" x 18" left over).  I auditioned a couple of batiks for the setting, my limitation being what I have in yardage (rather than FQs and scraps). The peach won out.  I made the float extra-large. I'm going to keep it that way and skip an outer border. 

5-3/4 yards used for the flimsy.    I still have 1-1/2" scrappy HSTs and a lot of 1-1/2" squares.

I made flying geese for round 3, "animal."  They're set as a ribbon.

I made four little drunkard's path blocks for round 4, "curves." They're the orange and black corners.  This is a wallhanging and I don't want it to get too big.

Round 5, "two colors," was hard to interpret. I chose a strip of orange and a strip of blue.
