I am loving working on the Summer Sampler quilt. I don't like the feeling of being behind though. I want to get caught up on these this week. I've made 5 blocks so far and the 8th pattern is coming out today so I'm really not that far behind. I just have the feeling that I'm getting too stretched out. I'm not going to start anything else until I finish the sampler and my other 2 WiPs. Melinda and I were talking this week and I was telling her that I don't really think I'm the kind of person that can have 5 projects going on at one time. I really feel like I accomplish more when I start and finish one quilt before I move on to another.
Finished:
-Blocks #3 & #4 for the Summer Sampler Quilt. These blocks are so fun to make!
and the 4 together...
-Red/White Wonky Star - I've entered this one in the Gen X Summer Fair. So thrilled this is completed!
-Batman/Superman - yeah! I love a finished quilt.
In Progress:
-Compassion Quilt for my friend - I didn't work on this one this week. I'm still mad at myself for not switching some of the fabrics around so I guess I'm pouting. ha! I've decided to leave it the way it is so I need to just sew it together and move on.
-Purple Quilt for The Grandmomma - poor little quilt is still sitting there.
-Purple Quilt for The Grandmomma - poor little quilt is still sitting there.
Begging for a Backing:
-Single Girl - tired of seeing this one listed on here.
Begging for a Binding:
Baby Hooty - still waiting, I think I need a reason to finish it.
On the Bubble:
Rubik's Crush - I look at this fabric every day and hope to start it soon.
Fifi & Fido - 100 Quilts for Kids - still thinking...
On the lookout - I've got my eye out for the perfect fabric to make:
Swoon - auditioning fabric on a daily basis - still looking.

Oooh, I like the Super Batman quilt! (Especially the superman side...)
I just love that red and white. So gorgeous!
Oooooh make swoon for me out of that Kaffe fabric. Just kidding!Love that pattern.
Your Farmer's Wife blocks are looking great--love the colors and contrast you are working with.
I made a little boy's quilt out of the disappearing 9-patch block as well, and I backed it in trains. He loves it, as I'm sure your Batman quilt will be loved too.
So fun to see the ideas and things on your blog--thanks!

Your R&W is so cool!
Your Summer Sampler blocks are so pretty! I'm sure you'll have no trouble catching up. The red and white quilt is beautiful too! Thanks for linking up to WIP Wednesday. : )
If my son sees your Batman/Superman quilt, I'm in big trouble!
Hi! Your quilts are beautiful and I like so much your summer sampler blocks! It's nice to see you have chosen 'different' fabrics and colours than most!

I love the Superman/Batman quilt. It shows up so well in the pictures here,I was bummed because I couldn't see the details as well when you showed it at the Guild Monday night.
And the R&W is super, too~
Love your Summer Sampler blocks! The solids are really fun, aren't they!?
