It's time for WIP (work in progress) Wednesday!
Rules: To play along on Work-in-Progress Wednesday, make your blog post for Wednesday be about something you're working on - some type of craft, renovation project, landscaping, even that novel you're writing. You can play along even if it’s not Wednesday; She leaves each WIP up until the following week.Click the button at the end of my post to copy the code below Rosie's picture and paste it into your blog post so that others can follow too, and see the rest of the projects that are posted.
Each week I look forward to checking out the WIP's of others. I find it very encouraging a motivating to participate. It keeps me working as I should be.
Now, here are my WIP's for the week:
I have all of the strip squares sewn for my strip quilt. I still have some of the squares to cut down, but I have sewn together 2 rows of the 7 I will have on the quilt. I am building a How To Make a A Strip Quilt-Step-by-Step with Photos squidoo lens. I hope you will right click and open it in a new window or tab, check it out, and let me know what you think. It's continual until I get the quilt completed.
My next work in progress is making headbands. I have the pink one completed. The next one will be made with the purple and I am trying a different pattern on it. These go in with an order I am fulfilling. These are being made on request.
Lastly, I have started on crocheting a prayer shawl for a program we do through my church. As you can see, I barely have a start on it.
