Design Wall Wednesday

Wednesday finds me in the sewing room unexpectedly. You know those days when you're too tired to work, but not too tired to sew??!?  That's me today! I have been watching too many  olympic events and not getting enough sleep. That's okay... it only happens every 4 years!

I have been enjoying the free Star of Wonder mystery quilt sew along by the Fat Quarter Shop.

I ordered the fabric kit mid June and it took the slow boat on a trip around the world, and was MIA for a while. And then the Fat Quarter Shop sent me a second kit mid July to replace the original MIA kit, which then randomly arrived in my mailbox  shortly thereafter! 

Of course it did! 

That meant I had 2 mystery kits in hand, what was I to do? You can hear all about it, see my July projects, and enter a draw the win the bonus fabric kit on my Youtube channel. 

The fabrics are from the "Once Upon a Christmas" by Sweetfire Road Design by Moda line. They are gorgeous with the mistletoe, snowflakes and doves.

I have almost all the blocks sewn for the first 4 steps and hope to sew step #5 today.

Look at you sew even with not enough sleep. When will you choose the winner of the extra fabric...asking for a friend!

Your Star of Wonder is coming together beautifully. I stayed up late sewing last night, pretty much ruined me for much else today.

I don't know how I missed that you have a YouTube channel. I popped over and subscribed. I'll watch after work today. I love your blocks, by they way.

I've been waiting for a Do Nothing Day to start this SAL! It's finished on FQS now. I got a few of the fabrics at a local LQS. Gotta shop local sometimes. I love the FQS Christmas in July. Not doing 7 of them this year...Watching too much Olympics too! Love the Gymnastics and swimming.
