You have been a great hostess! Like a lot of us, I have fallen behind. I have SEW many unfinished projects, have been slowly finishing them up. I did start a new quilt yesterday. I needed a new start! I started my last new project in early July. I will get back to Sylvia!

Giquilt, I think posting new assignments might inspire people to go ahead and try to finish. There's no use in keeping it on the back burner, at least IMHO. There might even be a few who are all caught up 
Maybe it's easier if 2 blocks a week are posted instead of 8 each 4 weeks.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]538153[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]538154[/ATTACH]B5 and B6 respectfully. I am not sure where my list is so are doing some in order until I find it. Trying to do a few blocks between "have to" projects.
Funny story about block B5. I recently did some Hexies for another quilt. So when I looked at this block and it's template thought it was the same size as my Hexies from previous quilt. Wrong! (It was the size with seam allowance included.) When completed, too big for background. After two days I redid the block with correct size Hexies, but to my dismay I had turned one of the flower stems wrong. Redo #2. Started sewing to BG which I pre-cut, it was too small 7" one way by 6 1/4 another. Soooo, redo #3. Persisted, now finished and trimed.
