So ends my quilting weekend. Have to clean house. In Laws coming over. Rats!

Debrak,
Love your stars. Very dramatic color combo!

DebraK, do what I do... tell them if they want to come over, they have to deal with the mess!!

The mess isn't bad. It's the grunge. I needed to dust and mop anyway ;-) It's the short warning that gets to me. I'll be by at the end of the day to admire everyone's progress.

Fantastic your OBW quilt. What quilt book would you recommend to learn to make such an awesome quilt? BTW and how many yards of this fabric did you buy?

I like your star block - it is great.

After a slow start this morning, I am plugging right along... I slept in this am because I rarely get to do that, then hemmed a pair of jeans, cut out two cloth book panels to sew up for the little GKs for Christmas, and did some stitch in the ditch quilting and raw edge applique on a small hanging which is now ready for binding.

First time doing the raw edge applique, it turned out pretty good. There were lots of turns and I was using a blanket stitch so I lost the edge a couple of times, but it is good enough for me.

Love seeing all the projects!

I have a majorly cranky baby on my hands so no sewing for me till bedtime. Lots of shrek watching and spying on what y'all are working on.

If I can I'm hoping to get the second table topper laid out to out together. Then hunt through my tiny stash for backing to quilt them up. My old man cat will appreciate some new festive sleeping pads. Lol

Great projects everyone, I started slowly this morning & I am now cutting out the BOM for Nov., lots of pieces :shock: Had to stop for a bowl of soup, so will check again later when hopefully I will have my block sewn.

I have the One Block Wonder Cubed book, but there is a blogger who just did a series of posts on how to put together one of these quilts. The address is http://quilterinthecloset.blogspot.com/ so check her archived posts for details.
