Thank you for the kind comments on my block. I've got 4 done and 3 more half done. I'm doing block by block to keep everything straight, and finding my Lori Holt design boards really helpful. (My Christmas present to myself, but for years made the ones that she provides a tutorial for.)

I love seeing the variety of fabrics used, and some of the changes in layout! I've been doing Bonnie's mysteries since 2009, and this is the 3rd time I've followed her colors. Carolina Christmas was my first and I love(d) it. I like the colors of this one a lot, so decided to use them. It's a little on the pink side, I didn't have the darker color Framboise in my stash and was determined that this would be stash only, except for the back.

On my UFO goal list for this year are several almost finished mysteries from before my retirement. One of them, Grand Illusion, I really struggle with. I used the suggested colors and just do not love it. I can't decide if i'm going to finish it as suggested, give it away for somebody else to finish (did I mention that the blocks are almost all done, as is the sashing?) or figure out some other layout.

Things to think about while plodding away on Frolic. No more UFO's!!
