Well I am all most finished with my first block for a Seven Sisters quilt. I am doing English PP using diamonds and hexagons then I drew and cut my own papers for the weird rectangle piece. I am using flower prints from the 70's and 80's the kind of fabrics I used to sew dresses for my daughters. This is my first PP quilt so should be a fun and learning experience.

I'm working on a stained glass denim quilt made of colourful jeans purchased at the thrift store. I have 3 laundry baskets full of old/used jeans in various colours and patterns, and the one I'm working on right now will have all the colours of the rainbow in a diagonal pattern, for my LGBT child.

Denim quilt with embroidery--trying various patches and patterns to see what works. "Chair time" project is PTOC. Made some of these last winter and didn't like the large lozenges I drafted. Those ufo blocks are being appliquéd on sewing machine covers. The inch size are more fun.

I am working on a vintage tractor quilt for the husband of a dear friend. It will be full sized when I'm done. The blocks are only six inches, so to make it more interesting, I'm piecing some six inch alternate blocks to make the squares go further. I've finished 12 of the alternate blocks already.

I'm working on a pair of 25" Raggedy Ann and Andy dolls for our newest DGD who will be almost 3 mo. at Christmas. They have always been a favorite of her mom, so as soon as Penelope was born I went searching for a pattern. McCalls has a new one just released as it is the 100th anniversary of RA, but I went to Ebay and got a 1970 version I liked better. It's going great as I found an embroidery CD for the face and heart and some vintage looking calico at Hobby Lobby.
Also working on finishing a few projects for Sadie's Dream for a Cure. I finished the two tote bags but with an excellent idea posted by sewbizgirl How cute is this panel?
I bought three play mats with Matchbox cars, and a panel by Riley Blake called A Dream and a Wish (fabric paper dolls in a castle fold out tote). Play mats are done, but still working on the dolls. I will post a picture when I am done.
