WIP Wednesday

Very little to report this week as I haven't been doing much sewing.
I did manage to finish 2 more blocks for Sew Out Loud.





SOL QAL 
The first block was from last week.....




 Then yesterday I did the 4th block.....




 
Love the fabric but I think it looks too cluttered and busy and the "pin this" gets kinda lost...
Not how I envisioned it at all.
This seems to be a case for "less is more"!!!
may be will be a re-do later :-(
 I got behind and hadn't even started the New York Beauty QAL,
Sew Sweetness

 
 I just got started on the first block...more paper piecing!!
I am using Circa 1934 fabric.. I have had a fat quarter bundle of this sitting on my fabric cupboard since it came out!
these are two parts of the 1st block that I started today....



 I think I forgot everything I learned about curves from doing the Drunkard's Path QAL!! They look slightly wonky!
As usual, I have no layout planned for the quilt.....I'm just going to do the 4 quarters from each block and then see where it goes from there...
probably a stupid thing to do *smile*
All of my other UFO's continue to languish somewhere in my sewing room. Poor babies!
Linking up to Lee at Freshly Pieced.
