WIP Wednesday

This week I finally finished up the sashing on the Block-a-palooza top - Luna wasn't much help, as you can see.  I ordered some more of the red cornerstone polka dot fabric to use for binding and then realised that I don't have enough of the fabric I planned to use for the border, so I am also waiting for that to arrive in the mail. 



In the meantime, I started piecing five giant Scottie log cabin blocks for the back.  The plan is to make them into a strip across the center of the back and finish with red and blue fabric above and below. 






I can add two more flowers to the finished stack.  I really need to pick up the pace on these.  My sister reports from her California sweatshop that she has finished 45!!!! flowers already - meaning she has totally left me in the dust. 






I am linking up to WIP Wednesday over at Freshly Pieced - go take a look at everyone's projects...
