WIP Wednesday: Taking It Easy. Kind Of.

Yep, I said I'm taking it easy. Oh, except for redesigning my blog. And releasing two patterns. And decorating the house for Christmas. And going to see Santa and doing some Christmas shopping and making next year's photo calendars for family. Huh. I did say I was "taking it easy," didn't I?

But you'll notice what isn't on the list above: sewing. After last week's Quilt-Con-entry sewing frenzy, I haven't been too motivated. Thus, my brand of "taking it easy." LOL.

So anyway, I don't have much to show here this week. I did whip up my next Art Gallery Fat Quarter Gang tutorial, which will be on Art Gallery's blog on Monday. I'll be showing you how to make this covered sketchbook or notebook—the perfect gift for an artist in your life. 

I want to thank all of you for the great reaction to my first pattern, Kissing Fish! The pattern has already been downloaded more than 350 times since I posted it on Monday. If you haven't downloaded it already, you can do so for free on Craftsy or Threadbias.

And don't forget to come back tomorrow, when I'll be releasing my next pattern, Cartwheels! The pattern includes templates for paper-piecing the Cartwheel blocks, along with detailed instructions for making the quilt in three different sizes: Baby, Lap, and Twin. And I'll be giving away three copies of the pattern starting tomorrow, so stop back for a chance to win.

So, how about you—what's on your to-do list this week? Whatever you're sewing, link it up here! Just remember the rules:
1. Link up any post from the past week that features at least one unfinished work-in-progress (WIP).
2. Somewhere in your post, you must link back here to my blog. (Or grab my WIP Wednesday button for your sidebar.)
3. Comment on at least a few of the other WIP Wednesday links. Because what fun is a linky party without comments?

Have a great week!
