WIP Wednesday

It has been a while since I've written anything, but for good reason.  I have been busy with bees and quilts.  On that note, be prepared for picture overload.  :)

I had a custom order for the shop, two actually.  One is finished and the other is coming along nicely.

Custom ordered purse.

Custom ordered memory quilt.  It's actually further along than this picture shows, I just haven't a more current photo.  It's made of baby clothing.

I also made a quilt and blankie for a friend of mine who will be having her first baby in May.

I also had a ton of bee blocks go out, with more in progress.  These are for the 3x6 Bee Star Hive:

I made two more for a charity quilt for a fellow blogger, Michele over at Quilts from my Crayon Box:

Then there was the Modern Mini Mystery Round Robin block that I added to:

It's a mystery, so I'm not showing the block I created in order for the owner to remain surprised.  These are just scraps I may, or may not, have used.

This is my block that I sent out for the challenge.  I included a roster for each quilter to sign.

I'm also working on my pot holders for the bee a {modern} swapper for this month.  Here is a sneak peak of what I have so far:

Well, I think that is it for now.  :)

Finished: 2

Ongoing: Comforts Quilt-have the squares now to assemble

                 Custom order quilt

No progress: Sparkle quilt, Oh my stars quilt, fabricland quilt

2. Pretty little Purse Swap 3
3. Project Me- need to sandwich and quilt.
4. A Zig A Zag project
5. Lone Star project
6. Pumpkin pincushions

8. Sunburst Quilt
9. 12 Days of Christmas Sampler QAL
10. Scarves for Red Heart's Special Olympics challenge.

I finished #1, as well as months November, December and January of ALFALC Swap.  

              #2, I had a ton of fun with this and learned some new things with this as well.

             #10, I made one scarf for this and will be sending it out shortly for the deadline is fast approaching.

               #13, January's blocks are finished.  Stretched me a bit as one of the ladies wanted improv piecing.  I forgot to take a picture of the second set of blocks, though.

                            I also am a part of Sew.Bee.Create Bee as well and these are the blocks for January.  Again, stretched as it was more improv!

                      Another Bee I'm a part of, Bee a {modern} Swapper, is alternating between blocks and swaps.  This month is the swap and it's a pincushion swap.  This is the pinnie I created.

                           #14, blocks finished for both hives I was caretaker of.

I also made an angel mug rug for the Mug Rug Swap.

I also was a part of the Cups and Saucers Swap:

I also had a few orders during that time, most of them custom-made.

Though I didn't get nearly as much off the list finished, I did get a lot of other items finished.  I still have more to do, more added to the list and I think some that will have to wait, but all in all, I'm pleased with what I've accomplished.

I'm linking up with Sarah over at FairyFace Designs.
