WIP Wednesday: Check it off

It's been a busy week of sewing with lots of projects to juggle, so it was nice to mark a few things off my list this week and make some progress on a few more. First up, I finished my pincushion for this month's STLMQG swap, and I love how it turned out. You can see lots more pics and get all the info in this post.

I also finished two more small items from my WIP list. The first was another pillowcase for B's room. I made him one months ago and forgot to blog about it, but he was in need of a backup so we'd have one to use while the other was in the wash. I used up scraps from his nursery fabric and closed it with some snaps.

The second item was my lanyard for QuiltCon!! I missed out on the lanyard swap that took place over on Instagram, but I wasn't going to let that keep me from having a cute one of my own. I followed this tutorial from Procrasticraft, and it went together in no time. Happy colors!

I also started cutting more fabric for the Sorbet baby quilt that's next on my list (the pattern is from Vintage Quilt Revival). The colored squares have joined the low-volume ones from last week, so now it's time to start piecing a whole bunch of HSTs.

Last night, I started working on a zipper pouch that needs to be finished before QuiltCon, as it's coming to Austin with me as a gift. I'm making the large bag "C" from Elizabeth Hartman's perfect zip bags pattern, and so far, it's going quite smoothly. I used a raspberry kiss block for the patchwork on the front, and it's all ready for assembly, hopefully tonight.

Finally, I also finished cutting all of my fabric for the workshop I'm taking with Lee Heinrich at QuiltCon. I couldn't decide on a final plan for the blocks we're making in the class, so I decided to just use some solids left over from my Texas Forever quilt. I think they might become a new table runner when everything's done. I still need to pick out my fabrics for my Elizabeth Hartman workshop, so hopefully I'll get to that this week. So what's on your list?
