Boston1954, I like the second one better too for your turtle, But I like the 1st fabric for the colors.
I made some progress today. I sewed binding on one of my ufo throws. I went to a lqs and found background fabric for my Winnie the poo baby quilt. (While completing a mini shop hop, only 2 stores). I also found and wash fabric to finish another ufo baby quilt. I only needed 1 more strip to finish the binding and attach to finish this project. Tomorrow I plan to cut and make my 8” block(s). And find material in my stash and do anther UFO quilt binding. So that’s 1/2 way there for binding this weekend.
