WIP Wednesday - Weeks 7 & 8

Did you miss me last week?  I missed you!  Last weeks post just didn't happen, rain and gloomy skies kept me from taking pictures, and honestly, who wants to see a post with no photos?  What did I accomplish in two weeks?  Not as much as I would have hoped.  I completed two blocks in my bottled rainbows quilt along, the first is in a previous post and the second is right here!  I am in love with them so far, and the process is so fun. 

I signed up for another quilt along, Lily's Quilts quilt along, I came in a little late, but am currently caught up with the rest of the group, I used my Sherbet Pips bundle for this quilt.  You can see my progress below.  I am so excited to have the inner circles sewn in and finished.  It was way easier than I thought it would be! 

I worked on my fabric stash (a little) more, and it is slowly coming around, maybe I will have that project finished by the end of the year!  I certainly hope sooner than that, but at the current rate, I'm not expecting much!

The last two photos are the two different colors of blooming iris in my yard currently.  The yellow is pretty and always photographs better, but I have to admit I love the purple ones the most!  I wish they bloomed year round.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels like I gotta have some nice pictures to break things up! :)

Your blocks are great!

Love how your bottled rainbows block looks - I love the fussy cut flower in the middle and the one in the lower left corner. Very nicely selected and arranged scraps! :)
