I'm still burying threads in the back of the Jungle Songs quilt. I'm making progress, but I'm starting to get bored. There is a reason I tend to do geometric machine quilting: there are far fewer threads to bury and they are rarely in the middle of the quilt! And I'd be done by now.
Besides Jungle Songs, I am playing with the layout of the Christmas Yellow Brick Road quilt I discovered in my stash. Because several of the fabrics contain snow globes, I have named it "Going Snow Global." The fabrics are all from Moda's Nick & Rudy fabric line that was released in 2006 (or before), making this WIP a lot older than I thought it was. Time flies...
As with all Yellow Brick Road quilts, I need to adjust the layout to make sure the same fabric isn't touching and to avoid too many reds and greens touching. It's obvious from the picture that I need to do a lot more rearranging. I'll adjust it a few more times (read: 10+ times) until I'm OK with the layout. This quilt will prove to be a challenge because there are so many reds and greens.
The next spinning WIP I'll tackle is the Natural Dyes Wild Card Batts that I started in 2010.
I should probably pull out one of my knitting WIPs just to have in the rotation, but none of them are calling my name right now. It's just as well, I probably won't feel much like knitting once I start baking!
