    Making a little progress on the Flying Geese. Did not get to yesterday though, due to a lack of sleep. Hope you get more done tomorrow.

    Lots of great projects going on here. Janjanq those are too pretty to be pot holders.

    I am loving seeing everyone's progress and finishes on their quilts. I am working on a house block with Halloween fabrics (I have so much Halloween fabric). Not sure I will get to sew this weekend but hope to get a few hours in.

    Iceblossom-your purple quilt is going to be so pretty. Purple is one of my favorite colors. What is the name of the pattern you are using?
    Janjanq-Love your mini pineapple blocks. They are all so pretty and well done. Are you using the Creative Grid Pineapple template? I have that template and so anxious to use it and you inspire me to get it out after see your pretty potholders and mug rugs.

    Jordan, I saw it about 20 years ago in a quilting magazine and of course when I went to make it, couldn't find it! I think it was called Grandmother's Pinwheel.

    The block as I'm doing it finishes at 12". Sadly, it doesn't lend itself to jelly rolls as nicely as it looks if you use rectangles for the center pieces it takes a full 44", if you cut the points on the pieces and make sure that you cut them all the same way (don't fold in half to cut) you can do it in 42". But for my odd sized scraps it worked out well.

    no, the 10-minute blocks makes these square diamonds when the block is done. one can leave them square or fold the bias sides in. as a matter of fact, i just finished that step and here is the pic

    Here is the UFO I'm working on... Winding Ways. For the longest time this was just cut pieces in a box. I will do some borders to finish it up, then quilt it.

    Yesterday got 1 quilt sandwiched and another layed out to relax the wrinkles. Also attached labels.

    Got so excited about Easter dinner, looked up a couscous recipe and carrots with Israli spices. Need to go shopping.
