So I finished my block-a-days for this week.
While I had the block-a-days out I played with them a little bit. Here is a picture of them all stacked up from largest to smallest. The stack is about 4 inches high!
These are all the 16" blocks. The red/green and white one will soon be a pillow for the porch. If you look closer you can see it's not Christmas fabrics but watermelon and ants!
I got the final border on the blue OBW and made the binding. The outside border I cut 10.5" and used the original fabric. I'm real happy with it. It measures 74 x 90. I have about a 3" strip of fabric left!

And on Monday my mom brought over the Anniverary quilt I made for them for their 50th wedding anniverary. I want to quilt around their wedding picture, it's too puffy. When I quilted it, I was renting the HQ and I was a pretty new long armer and I was afraid to ruin it. I just did the minimal to keep it together and was never happy with their picture in the center.
I've been working on the Mariner Compass...adding more quilting to the center and liking it. yea!
I also pieced the Jelly roll block.
And here is my 6th block for Shannon's BOM.
I really like it. I laid out all the blocks and my blank center piece (no I haven't started the applique for the center yet).
