WIPs This Week

I'm in the middle of a few different projects again this week, so I thought I'd share a bit about each of them.

First up, my continuing adventures with garment sewing with knits. Last week I made a knee length version of this Summer Basics dress from Love Notions and now I'm ready to make the maxi length version out of this lovely striped jersey knit. I'll blog about both dresses when this one is finished and I can get good pictures. For now, I'll say that Love Notions patterns are well written, this dress comes together very quickly and it is soooo comfortable.

This is a two-fer project 😊 The block is the Monthly Colour Challenge block for July, which I'm also going to use as the base of my July Island Batik ambassador project. This is a sneak peek, but you'll get to see the block itself on July 1st. After that, who knows when I'll be finished the ambassador project. Hopefully it won't be too late into the month.

This quilt is due to Make Modern the middle of next month and I'm making good progress on it so far. Here's a bunch of units ready to be pressed and then assembled into the next batch of finished blocks. It's a fun, scrappy project that I'm really enjoying working on (well, except for the trimming of the HSTs) and that I can't wait to share.

And I've been doing my pattern writing, too. I have one pattern finished and ready to be released and the file sent to the printer. That's another blog post that needs to be written soon, lol. I'm also working on updating one of my old patterns to get that ready for printing. Can I just say that revisiting an old pattern has been a great way to see how far I've come with my pattern writing? Here's a shot of the scribbling that takes place as I'm working 😊 The finished version will be much more coherent, I promise!

I think that's it, though there are plenty of other projects taking up space in my head, clamoring for their turn 😊 What are you working on this week?
