Work In Progress Wednesday...

It's that time of week again!  Time for me to show you some of the exciting things (or not so exciting things) that are happening at Miss Jones Sews.

For a while there, I only had one project on the go!  No of course I'm inundated with things to do.  And my 'to do' list seems to be growing.

I finally worked out a design for the Ahoy Matey Quilt and I've cut all the fabric for it - except for the 50 or so 1" strips that I need.  To be honest, I'm kind of putting that off! This quilt will be listed for sale on my Facebook page once it is finished. 

I'm making my second custom baby quilt, this is a unisex quilt, the recipient is giving it to a work colleague and they don't know what they are having.  I'm feeling very nervous about it, because I'm unsure if it will be unisex enough!  I'm using Grow With Me from Moda.

The very best WIP I'm working on is this little beauty. 

It's our baby's face!  She is measuring perfectly which is a huge relief as our last baby was measuring too small.


I few things that I have finished this week are a change mat clutch (I will also have these for sale soon) and the personalised baby quilt I showed you in my last post.

Possibly the most exciting thing is that I officially launched Miss Jones Sews and now I have a logo! 

Gem from Two Little Blue Birds created it for me.  I love it!

A Pinwheel Quilt

The baby's pinwheel quilt is finally finished! 

I'm really happy with how it turned out in the end.  I was so pleased when I found some perfect Leicin Fabric for $5.95 for the backing!  I'd been kicking myself that I didn't buy yardage in the moda fabric I used for the pinwheels but I think the Leicin looks great. 

I also made a pinwheel mobile to go over the change table, it's not quite finished so I won't post pictures until it's up!

We have decided on a name for our baby (stay tuned for that..) so I decided to set it in stone, I would make a personalised baby quilt.  I made one for my niece back in July and I think it's going to be my go to baby gift for anyone I know having a baby!  (Lots of people at the moment!)

Anyway, after I finished it I decided that since it's got apples and apple trees on it and my friend is having a baby called 'Apple'  I would give it to her instead.   I think I'll back it with red.
