It seems like a long time since I’ve written a WIP post but I’m glad to say I’m WIP-ing again!
I’ve got two finishes – some blocks for Rosa, my bee friend in Scrappy? Sew Bee it! which is based on this quilt at Red Pepper. And two very simple cushions made from half a yard of Melody Miller’s View Finder from Ruby Star Rising. When I finished the first one I thought one of my daughters would like it but I fell in love with it too so I made another one for me!
Now in progress, I have finally cut into this Trade Winds (by Lily Ashbury for Moda) which I bought back in the Summer when I was lucky enough to win a competition hosted by Jenna from Sew Happy Geek.
Today a bunch of hsts, hopefully soon a quilt top.
Now I’m going to link up with Lee at Freshly pieced for WIP Wednesday. It’s being hosted today by Svetlana who blogs at S.O.T.A.K handmade.

Lovely blocks. I'd seen the view finder discs fabric, and saw it as view finders, I didn't realise from a distance it looks like circles, the cushions look great too!
