When you first start out don't try and be to frugal w/ your fabric pieces. As you get better you will see there are many ways to to use the fabric much more frugally then is normally thought of about PP, but until you are very comfortable w/ it trying to save a little of fabric will cause you intense frustration!

Yes, Joan, you need another hiding place for quilts... or display them.

B'stone... great block for Jayne. Very Christmas wreath-y! I love that red fabric you used for your center and star points.
