Alot's been going on since last W.i.P. Wednesday - a couple of features, entering my Mini 'X' in a tutorial contest, joining a new Modern Blocks bee, starting a new flickr group and a giveaway! {see here to enter} Yikes! I did manage one finish, and made starts on several new projects.
Completed projects
Scrappy Autumn Lap quilt - I've posted twice since last Wednesday about my Scrappy Super Swoon, but if you missed them, see here and here. I'm really pleased with this finish!
Ongoing projects

Flannel Christmas star quilt - I cut out and managed to start piecing a Snow-Kissed Star with Riley Blake's Colorful Christmas. I have the center star done. Add two borders, and I'll be done with the top. I'm mulling over a plan for a pieced back - kind of excited about trying something new.
Wonderland Christmas tree skirt NEW - This is a pattern by Empty Bobbin. You may remember that I told you a while back that when I first started quilting, I never went fabric shopping without my quilting buddy along. Over the years I got more confident about choosing fabric myself. Well this weekend, my buddy and I had the opportunity to fabric shop together, just like old times. It was great fun, and I purchased (most of) the fabric needed for a tree skirt. I admit, my palette is somewhat unusual - definitely not the traditional red and green. But red just doesn't go well in my living room, and I always struggle with that. So brace yourself!
teal, green, gray, espresso
Wrenly HST quilt - no progress here. Maybe when I baste up the Snow-Kissed Star, I can baste this one up too. That would be good.
