Another UFO finished! Whoop whoop!

Happy weekend to everyone!  Yay it's been a TGIF and onto Saturday!

I am pleased to have finished this UFO from 2013.  It has been fun to do but was put off as it wasn't for a particular date or occasion.  In fact this is going into the car as a spare Incase we are caught out somewhere and just need a quilt.
I decided this would be a great quilt to practice my free motion quilting on!  And yes it was.  Following is a few photos for you to look at.
Here is the finished quilt ready for binding.  I am sorry about the bad lighting, but we are experiencing some very horrible weather at the moment.  Hubby is building a quilt stand for me at the moment and I may have it for next weekend which will definitely help me take photos of my quilts!  Whoop whoop!
In my stash I found some binding which wasn't quite right for another project but perfect for this one.  So to the machine I go and on it goes with a decorative stitch!
Binding on!
See the decorative stitch I used!



And here it is hanging.  This quilt just needs a few ends tied in and it will then reside in the car!  This was done as a block of the month quilt with Facebook group 'Quilting'

I will be linking to Whoop whoop it's Friday!  and TGIF with whims and fancies  and I would so love to say thanks to the hosts for providing these links it's such fun and I am glad to link with you.    Don't forget to check everyone else's work out also!

Have a great weekend!

Wendy.

Wow lets do a whoop whoop!

Well a huge HELLO!

Apologies.  this has taken so long to do a blog but I have literally been working on becoming organised and having many completions as possible by end of the year.
firstly I have started making some buntings for christmas trees.  
bunting in the process
I have been making quite a few buntings for sale for christmas trees they look so cool, I will have to make some for myself!



a couple of mug rugs for a surprise gift
These little mug rugs are well on their way to their destination!


This is a Block of the month quilt I started in 2013
This lovely Quilt is now ready for basting and quilting.  It has been a ufo since end of 2013.  I started this with Quilting Facebook group.  I am so pleased that it is now ready for quilting.  Earlier this year I did a free motion quilting course and am looking forward to quilting something fun on this!  I'm literally doing a happy dance! Whoop Whoop!

Nanny's Special quilt - Be sure to read her blog post in the link!  Its well worth it!

Now this special quilt has special meaning to me and another online friend Ineke!  Nearly two years ago it was a hot night here in Australia and we were chatting late.  We decided to send another online selfless friend a birthday surprise as she was always doing stuff for others and not for herself.  Then we hatched an idea to get a few more of ours and her friends to send her some love to... I will let you read all about it here for a warm buzz!

One of my Ufos coming close to a finish

almost there but had to have an affair with Jack the Ripper
Then lastly this is my latest quilt top coming together!  I did this with a local group as a mystery in August.  I am very happy to be up to the borders.  Be sure to check in soon and see the finished result!  Today I am linking with Confessions of a Quilt Addict aka Sarah to do a Whoop Whoop
So be sure to go and have a look at all the eye candy over there!

Until the next couple days take care and have fun quilting or creating!

yours in Quilting

Whooping because another UFO has become my next PhD!

Finally can say I am happy with another project coming out of the cupboard and getting close to a finish
What was sitting unfinished

I started this project last year, it was my Facebook quilting groups BOM for 2013.  I was doing really well and keeping up to date until 
August came along.  I didn't want to piece this block the same so the whole project became shelved.

start of August Block

Ready for appliqué to be stitched


love this
This year I decided to try Steam a seam 2 and this is the first project I have managed to use it for and WOW! This is worth a big WHOOP!

another block in the making

love this grateful heart block

who doesn't need tolerance to gain peace

and just have fun

Ready for the sashing
So as you can see I have these blocks ready to finish the appliqué and then I plan on giving this quilt a star sashing, which will be fun and I am hoping to be doing a Whooping dance!

For my other Whoop - I have almost finished my Celtic Solstice mystery quilt by Bonnie Hunter, I have changed a few of the colours and the border.  I am so excited and really would love to show you the quilt now but I think it deserves its own blog.  The biggest whoop is the extra fabic I have chosen for the border and the surprise that will be for you all,  is on it's why to me now.  If I am really lucky I will be able to have this off my list this month.  

I have also made my coasters for a special friend but unfortunately I cannot show a photo until she recieves them.  I am linking this blog for a big whoop with Confessions of a fabric Addict

Now that I have caught up with a lot of my things, I will have time to give you an update of all of the happenings here at Wehago Designs.  I encourage you all to click and follow me either on bloglovin or by email, I have some very exciting things coming which I would like you to join me with.  Having a giveaway to all of my readers in the middle of July,  So tell me what are you whooping about today and don't forget to join up so you don't miss a post?

Have a wonderful Whoop,

Wendy
