Have to think about it some more.

Here is the finished OMG quilt. I'm pleased with how the borders turned out - I may turn the front to the back for the binding - can't really think of anything else that would work.
And my helpers -
helping to keep the completed UFO's from taking off . . . I need to get pictures so I can post them on the UFO challenge thread. I've been trying hard to get some done before the end of the year.
I'm almost done with the 4 patch blocks for the BH Mystery, and then I want to play with some charm squares and the mini-twister ruler I bought a while ago and having used yet.

Great quilts being finished (or worked on). I had precut an entire layer cake for Quatrefoil. With each block at 12 1/2" I realized that I had enough for two 3x4 and one 2x6 quilts. Holy cow, what was I thinking? Must have not had brain engaged when I did all the precuts. Oh well...... Now I have 12 blocks done and ready to press. I found that some blocks do better if I finger press as I go and give them a final press after assembly.
