    All blocks complete. Spacers and borders cut. All hanging on design wall.

    I’m with Charlotte, “Tomorrow is another day.” But, only if the Lord tarries.

    I am in again.

    1. Finish the blocks for a baby quilt and assemble the top.
    2. Find the fabric for the back for said baby quilt.
    3. Layer the quilt. Consider quilting options

    Option A: quilt a mid-sized quilt that is layered and ready to go under the needle.
    Option B: Repair a quilt, do the mending project for a friend.
    Option C: Make a boom block or two.

    I will be working on a Rainbow quilt for my Granddaughter. Piecing the large curves was challenging.
    The pattern I used is Retro Rainbow by Megan Collins. Luckily there were videos to watch that gave tips for piecing large curves. My dil chose the fabric and color order of the rainbow. She wanted solid fabrics. Happy Quilting everyone!

    I'm joining in too! I'll be working on a Kim Deihl top. The pattern is in Installments and I am working on Installment 3. Cloudy and cool today so I will not be as inclined to get side tracked for outside activities.

    Is fun seeing and hearing about what the rest of you are doing. I'm down to making my last 3 blocks. Final version will be 5x7 blocks. Picture 2 shows the border fabric and the calmer green back.

    I am working on these blocks. No idea what they are called. A friend gave me these floral fabrics. Perfect for this pattern. I have 12 done and 18 to go.
    yard work is done and housework can wait. My sewing room calls!

    Good day everyone. Thank-you for posting this thread Heather. I so look forward each month for this!!!!!

    This weekend I plan to finish my traffic jam top. And work on 3 clues from cotton cuts designs. The pieces are all cut, I just need to sew. And in-between quite a few small projects. Figure out where I left off on my Double Irish stars. Then complete a few clues over he weekend. My goal to have DIS completed by next VQW. Of course quilting the small projects have the priority.

    I will check in latter, take care and happy sewing/quilting.

    Will work on a few "Santa Helpers" small kid's quilts. Hopefully I can use up much of my kid type fabrics.

    Love seeing all the pictures of what people are working on. I finished trimming the blocks from the mystery clue. Then I did the prework for the Koin Keeper class I'm taking Sunday afternoon. Tomorrow I'm going to a guild sew-in with friends, I have some charity quilts to work on. My local shop is doing a foundation paper piecing quilt along so I pulled the fabric for that today as well. Much of the day was spent trying to get internet and telephone. We cancelled the tv portion from Spectrum yesterday. We didn't realize they were shutting everything down and sending a new modem to be activated. The modem arrived about lunchtime and we tried activating all afternoon. I don't know what the problem was but after an online chat which ended with DH threatening to cancel all services, the phone and internet started working. The internet speed seems to be a little slow and when I called out, the phone line was quite choppy. Hopefully it resets itself overnight! You don't realize how much you use the internet until you don't have it any more
