W.I.P = Work in Progress Wednesday .....

Well, OK .... why not ..... maybe, just MAYBE if those slackers in the MBIAJ Sewing and Quilting Dept feel a little pressure to show a smidge of progress every Wednesday they'd get something , ANYTHING done once in awhile !!!! So, as of today, we are joining ....




...."Work In Progress Wednesdays" created by Lee on her blog Freshly Pieced .....and HOPEFULLY we won't be showing THE SAME "W.I.P" every Wednesday for the next 25 Wednesdays !!!! (because it COULD happen .... really .... I'm thinking there should be an expiration date on some of my W.I.P's ! I'm also thinking our W.I.P. Wednesday posts might be / will probably be W.I.P every OTHER Wednesday ... or, W.I.P every THIRD Wednesday every other month ....sigh)

OK, anyhow, since there are quite a few W.I.P's here at MBIAJ Headquarters, I'm sure you're wondering just how on earth we narrowed it down to pick just one .... well, it came down to this train of thought ..... the MBIAJ Sewing and Quilting Dept has been working a little bit here and there on Moonbeams Boy Evan's graduation quilt .... AND since his 19th birthday is coming up THIS MONDAY (sob ... my baby boy will be 19 !) we thought it appropriate to choose it as this week's W.I.P ..... and here it is .....



...the top is almost all pieced and now it's machine applique time ....


......stitching down "595" (Evan's dirtbike racing #).

Hmmm..... making about as much progress as a turtle ..... thinking the MBIAJ Sewing and Quilting Dept should also sign up for this Friday's Friday Night Sew In over at Handmade by Heidi's blog. Yep, that's what we should do .... OK! See you Friday !

Be back soon!
