Well I finally escaped the early morning starts at work… this morning! With that in mind, my energy for evening sewing has been somewhat depleted, not to mention hanging out with my mum and gran for Friday evening and most of Saturday taking out another chunk of time. I did get half of a new tutorial for Remnant Kings done on Sunday, right up until the point I realised that I’d ordered the wrong size of zip and didn’t have an appropriate replacement in my stash. Seriously, every colour under the rainbow *but* the one I needed! Big deep breaths were taken before I dove back into my MSW (such a hardship) I got the correct size and colour of zip last night, so my priority for this week is the other half of the tutorial, but I can feel a milestone coming in my MSW, so I’m sure I won’t be able to keep away. What did your week bring? Lots of sewing, or lots of summer adventures?
Finishes This Week:
Half that tutorial. It was one of two things, so it counts, honest. I’ll share the details soon, but I’ll leave you thinking about what I could have done with this:
In Progress This Week:
I had to take sections 1-3 of my MSW off my design wall so that I could get sections 4-6 up there. So far I’ve completed sections 4 and 6, I just need to work out my section 5 background. I don’t really want to do a ton of squares of green that will be completely hidden by rainbows, so I need to get thinking… I know, the lighting is still terrible, but it keeps raining (and I took the photo at midnight ;o) )
To Be Worked On This Week:
Tutorial round 2
Section 5 and starting the extension panels for my MSW
I might just tackle that hoovering I mentioned a few weeks ago. Then again…
Hope you all have a great week! Linking up with Lee and the gang:
Msw looks awesome! Glad you got some family time in too 🙂
Enjoy the family time. We should always treasure family and friends #smile
Your MSW looks nice! Have fun "thinking" on the solution – or get sidetracked by tutorial round 2 and maybe it will just pop into your mind.
Seriously girl – where do you find the time?
Your curvy bits are looking great, if you don't mind me saying.

Your cityscape quilt looks interesting; is it a mystery quilt along? Good luck writing the tutorial, at least you're using a fun fabric!
Those rainbows are my favourite part!
love the ice cream vans . becoming a thing of the past pretty much.
What is that ice cream van fabric? Are you going to find a place for it in MSW? I am collecting fabric for mine, its just there are several quilts ahead of it in line. I also found another Jen quilt in an earlier Quiltmania, so my list is only getting longer.
The ice cream van fabric is a PVC home dec weight fabric that I'm using for a tutorial :o) Have fun collecting the fabric for yours, I'm glad I stuck to just a couple of designers for mine, otherwise I think I'd still be picking out the 'perfect' bits!
MSW (or KSW? Katy's Small World?) is looking awesome! A bit of a sample project with all those different techniques – I'm loving it
Your MSW is amazing! That is one I'm definitely planning on doing at some point!
