Can I Get A Whoop Whoop? Small Victories...

Hi, all!

Friday is upon us once again, and a holiday weekend, too!  I hope all of you have wonderful, fun plans for the weekend to celebrate the end of summer and beginning of fall (please send that cooler weather soon!) but first, let's get our whoop whoop on, shall we?

*&*&*&*&*&*&*

It's been a busy week, and I've made lots of progress on projects...


The last of the memory quilt tops went from this pile of blocks...


...to this finished top!  And Lilli's annual quilt went from one small corner...


...to a whole lot more!  This is about half of the whole quilt top - it's going to be so big!


However, I did have one honest-to-gosh finish this week - a memory pillow for a friend.  She saw the denim ones I made earlier and wanted one made from a shirt of her mom's.


This shirt had a great front AND back, fortunately, and there was enough fabric in the sleeves to make great binding.


So all in all, a good week - things are moving along, and a finish to feed the soul.  Can I get a whoop whoop?

*&*&*&*&*&*&*

And now it's your turn!

What's got you whooping it up this week?


What's making you do a little happy dance?

Share!  We want to dance right along with you,

And it's always more fun to dance with friends!

The party will stay open until Sunday midnight.

Hope to see you there!

Hugs!

Sarah
