Itsy Bitsy Bits of Progress

I've been making bits of progress on a variety of projects. I actually finished the quilt top that goes with these photos, but I don't have a photo of the top. That will come later.  By the way, when squaring and trimming half square triangles, don't try and answer the phone - it doesn't bode well for accurate cuts.
I've been working on a pillow for swap my guild is having at this week's meeting. It will be white elephant style and I'm excited to see what my guild mates have made. Because it isn't public yet, that picture too will have to wait. But, here's a snippet.

My most on-going project is my version of La Passacaglia.  I've been working on it on and off for forever. I took it with me on the 10 day road trip.  I only ended up working on it for a few minutes. I couldn't work on it in the car unless I wanted to be terribly car sick. The one time I sat down to work on it (doing laundry at the hotel), one of our trip "adventures" struck. I didn't get to pick it up again, although, my sewing travel kit pretty much lived in my purse.



Oh, travel "adventure" you ask? Our vacation was one of those that you look back on afterwards and laugh and tell stories. I'll leave them to another post, 'cuz this is a whole other story...
