Well, I am finally back with some blocks, not caught up and no QAYG on any of the blocks, but am on vacation next week, so taking along to do some. Since I got so far behind, I am not following the guidelines, but just going down row D, and sewing as they come. I got as far as D7, and quit till after vacation, because D8 looks like a real stinker. And this post is my 1000th post. A milestone for me. Sorry for the long post, but wanted to get all this posted. Put on the dark glasses when you get to D1, it is pretty bold. I am posting to pictures, the 3 signature quilts that put me so far behind.
Here is D7-a fairly simple block.

And here is D6, and yes, this is satin material, so remember that this is a glitzy DJ. I got this piece of material from a granddaughter's prom dress that I had to shorten. Imagine my terror of cutting into a big bucks prom dress. Just had to use it in one of the blocks.

On to D5 and another not too hard of a block. I am improving on my sewing, can see the difference from when I started.

This is D4 and once again, these little ovals are a bear to do, but will look fine, once I get the applique done on them.

Block D3 was done a while back, so here is D2. A little tricky, but taking time and lots of thought, I am happy with how it turned out.

Here is D1 and this material was used by one of the granddaughters in her 13 year quilt.
