I am in. My priority will be working on the last Mystery Train ride quilt. I hope to get the top finished this weekend. Then I will work on finishing 2 charity quilt tops.
I was at my LQS tonight for a BOM and the new ruler for tonight was Corner Beam from Deb Tucker. I am excited to have this ruler so will probably play around with some fabric and make some scrappy blocks along with making my block for next month's class.
Boston: Very pretty.

Poor planning on my part - I made plans with my sisters before I realized it was a holiday weekend, so no sewing on Saturday will happen. But the time I have on Sunday and Monday will be spent working on getting Talkin' Turkey, by Bonnie Hunter, together. Blocks are done, one border done. Now to get them all together into a top. Also some shirts to deconstruct, and if there is any time after that, I need to practice some hand quiilting.

I would love to join you! I finished quilting two quilts today that I need to bind. Who knows what i’ll get into after that, but there are plenty of WIPs to choose from! Looking forward to seeing lots of pictures!

I'm in. I have 10 baby quilts that need bindings to be hand stitched. They should be delivered to a crisis pregnancy center next week along with other stuff. ... And, in my spare time, 
I have a ton of scraps left to tame (cut into squares). Here's hoping for all of us to have a happy and successful weekend along with prayers given for our military folks.

Count me in. It turns out that I'm not much good at improv, because I've had this quilt on my design wall for several weeks and continue to move parts around as well as making checkerboards, diamonds, different types of trees, mountains and little houses to add to it. It all started with the longhorn cattle fabric which I love. I plan to really buckle down this weekend and finish the top at last.

I’ll join in. I’ve completed the Boxes of Strings top plus the Mystery #19. Now to back both. I have fabric for the Mystery but not for Boxes. I don’t want to shop on this holiday weekend, though. I also need to quilt my Final Frontier. I have it sandwiched so it’s ready. I misplaced an essential pressure foot & darning plate so I had to find those in order to do the quilting. They’ve been found, so no more excuses. I’m also sewing a purse from leather & that’s had my attention lately.
