Midweek Sewing!

 This week is Spring Break where I teach so I planned a little midweek sewing time at Barb's  I brought along my Playing with Jacks (which I quilted on my own following the backing earlier in the week) and put the binding on.  I am happy to cross this one off my UFO list!
Barb finished up her 35th Ave. BOM from last year so I can mail it off with mine to Alycia for QOV.  Kathy still has about five blocks to go!
 I then sewed on En Provence for the first time in forever.  I made it this far before Barb wanted to run out to the quilt store.
 This morning I did a bunch of teaching prep stuff then found myself with a little time before work (I leave in a few minutes!) so I sewed up the blocks and then laid them out to see what this quilt will look like!


Now hopefully I will get this one stitched up and off to my longarmer.  This mystery has taken me longer than any of them.  I just lost my mojo for it, strange since I do really like it!
Well, off to work!  Super excited that I am hiking the Grand Canyon on Sunday!

I think your En Provence is gorgeous! Hope you can get it stitched together soon.

I've had to put other quilting in front of En Provence, so I need to get back to it. Seeing yours, I think I can make sections instead of having to do one block at a time, which was the part holding me up.
