WIPWednesday

Good morning everyone...a rainy morning here today; and it is very welcome. We desperately need lots of rain...as much as I hate it.  It means I get to stay indoors(sewing)....yay!!!

Works in progress this week:  There are 14 of 16 blocks finished for the RTQAL...here is the latest one/Missouri:

I am hand quilting a king size Log Cabin:

Joined up for the 'Wicked' blog hop in Oct.  the button is on my sidebar; please take a look.
The FMQ Challenge is on for a few more months....I still have to try this month's challenge and the bonus challenge....I did take a few pictures yesterday to try to sketch for the bonus challenge.
That will be interesting...lol I'm not artist!!  But will be fun...

And I have 3 more quilt tops arriving the end of this month to hand quilt. After my vacation.
Marla is going on this trip to Pennsylvania with me; she has been there before; first time for me.
It is a bus trip...staying in the Amish Comfort Inns for a few days. This is something I am really looking forward to....quilts!!!!!!!! quilt shops!!!!!

Well you know the routine folks.....linking up to Freshly Pieced and Monika ....take a look for yourself. Thanks for reading this long long post...

    How exciting to be going on a quilty trip! Have fun. I always have a handquilting project on the go. I love to machine quilt too. I still have to practice this months FMQ challenge. The bonus challenge will be difficult for me I think.

    so exiting to be going to quilt country! You have inspired me to put a quilt on a frame to hand quilt! and since it is a borrowed frame, I cannot daudle for months over it, working at it each day...

    Hand quiting scares me, one day I'll get brave and give it a try.
