On the second one I have rearranged the 9 patch blocks so there is a flow in the color scheme. I don't have a picture of the new arrangement yet.
The 3rd one is simply a scrappy of miscellaneous blocks with a heart shaped applique of one of the gowns in the center and I don't have a picture of it.
I don't think I will ever do one of these again for someone else unless it is a gift.
Now that the weekend is over, this is what I accomplished on the three wall hangings. Remember I am working with fusible grid. All three are pressed onto the grid and are waiting to be sewn together.

The long scrappy one will have a fusible heart from one of the gowns in the center of it
Also I took the neckline of one of the gowns and put it on an acid free comic board and framed it
