Work in Progress Wednesday

Long time, no see... There has been little activity from me here on this blog lately, due to travel and life in generally, But now I am back on track and can show you some progress.

First is my little travel project: A tiny little owl cross stitch kit I won from Theresa over at BumbleberryStitches in a blog hop this spring. When this little owl is done I will incorporate it in a zippered pouch, most likely. The perfect fabric to surround the owl is already acquired, and I know the pouch will be super cute!

My other project is bigger, this will be a wedding gift for my nephew and his soon to be bride. For the first time in my life I am making a two-colored solid quilt. The colors are not the best on this picture in indoor lighting, but it is teal and a light aqua. All the pieces for the quilt has been cut, so now I just have to assemble them. This will eventually become an optical illusion quilt. I will show more updates later.

Until then, keep on quilting!
