W.i.P. Wednesday: Still At It

I've been on a bit of a break from sewing (and blogging) these last few weeks.  It's something I rarely do because sewing really is my passion and not something I need a vacation from but with the end of the school year and a week in Maine there just hasn't been time...

I'm home for a brief visit so I'm trying to jump back in to my current projects.  I totally impressed myself with this seam.  I found this perfect nautical backing for my Houndstooth quilt at one of my new favorite quilt shops, Saltwater Fabrics.  It's on the way to our house in Maine, the perfect stop for a little lunch and shopping on our way North;-)

Here it is basted and ready for a quilting marathon.  I've definitely learned that quilting large quilts isn't the best summer time activity but I'm sure there'll be a rainy day or two.

I did make some more progress on my La Passacaglia on the drive...  my goal is to prep the next couple of cogs before we hit the road again.  How do you keep your projects moving forward in the summer?

Still sewing along with this week's W.i.P. Wednesday:-)
