WIP Wednesday #36

This week was quite productive for odds and ends plus one BIG project.  Today I finished rows 3 and 4 of the Victoriana Quilt Designs Fabric Party Quiltalong  http://www.victorianaquiltdesigns.com/VictorianaQuilters/BlockoftheMonth/VQDFabricParty.htm
I really like the colors on this quilt, it's the Seaglass Jellies and bundles from JoAnn Fabrics with just a couple of my others thrown in to break up all of the prints.
I decided to get in on the Kaleidoscope quiltalong with Don't Call me Betsy at http://dontcallmebetsy.blogspot.com/2011/05/come-join-kaleidoscope-quilt-along.html  Right now I don't know exactly how I'm going to do the colors.  It's just pink prints and more pink prints...  The solids are just multiple shades of pink.  Boring, boring, boring.  I am making it baby quilt size.
I am pleased with completing the We Can Do It Skill Builder Sampler Block #3.  LOVE my colors on this quiltalong as well.  Block #3 is the Churn dash on the left in the photo.  Here it is with it's friends.  Get the details at http://sewnbyleila.blogspot.com/

I also made my five sets of blocks for the block lotto for July already!  Yes, it has been a busy week!

And for the grand finale this week, I finally sandwiched my Country Kitties California King quilt.  Wheeee!
It's ready and waiting to take over the kitchen table for quilting some day.   http://www.free-quilting.com/detail.html?code=FQ00052&cat_id=1 
Yes, I'm still joining quiltalongs and such.  But I am also keeping up on them.  What's one more block/row per week?  Ha ha.  When will I learn?
