And speaking of school! I just finished term two reports! YAHOOOOO! That makes me that much closer to retirement in June!!!!
I'll post pics of the quilt top later. :wink:

The day was lots of fun and I hope to have a picture to post one of these days. Thank goodness for weekends, it off to work this morning.....
I cant' wait to see the photo Joan!

Well, Aggi......I opted to go with scrappy and a cream background and plan to put some color for the sashing, blue or sage perhaps? Anyway, here are 13 of the blocks on my design wall so far...have more made but this is all that will fit on my small flannel wall! LOL I have a close up of 4 of them also will post that....the big picture didn't turn out all that well, the lighting was bad in here that time of day.

I got 5 blocks done for the bali quilt that Misstreated posted. I didn't get anything done on the Crown Royal quilt. I need to complete all of my projects in the next 5 months as I've decided to go back to school after 20 years and finish my accounting degree. After 140 hours I'll have a BA in accounting with a minor in Criminal Justice:) I'm so terrified lol! Someone needs to promise me that they'll come kick my butt from Kansas to California if I chicken out! The prospect of Business Calculus leaves me with a brick in my stomache. It's too good of a deal to pass up though, the company I work for is paying 100% of tuition costs so I'd be a complete idiot not to.
