Done but it needs to be squared up and pressed. I’ll use this setting again. Having done it once, I can say it’s actually fairly easy and quick. Once I figured out my error, I flew through it. Colors are way off. Will ask dh to take a pic outside tomorrow.

Sewbiz, I love the sweater! It is fabulous! I'm going to vicariously be a grandma along with you as I forsee a long wait for myself! Thanks for sharing it with us.

Thanks Jayne, and I will be pleased to share the grandmother experience with you!

Girl, there ain't nothing you can't do, is there? That sweater is just over the top. I love it. It would take me five years to knit something like that, that's how slow I am at knitting. Your grandbaby is going to be stylin'!

Thanks Libster, and others who commented on the sweater! I’m a little bit proud of it, myself. I haven’t knit anything like that in several years and wasn’t sure I could do it justice... but it came right back to me, just like riding a bike. The yarn for the second one came in the mail today...

Great quilt, Janice. It’s such a pretty setting. You sure can’t tell you had any problems with those blocks.

It's looking good, Janice! Love the star setting.

I finished the sweater for my daughter's baby. She picked out this pattern about 6 years ago, and I told her I'd make it for her if she ever had a baby. We don't know the gender yet, but she says she will put it on either a girl or a boy. :o

I know it is giving you fits but it really is lovely, and you are doing a good job disguising it's shortcomings.

It hardly looks much different than a pic from a week ago but this time it’s sewn together. I’m cutting the borders now. Hope to have a few on today. I’m not a fan of partial seams and mitered corners but I’ll get plenty of practice today. Lol.

I finished two more blocks, only two more to go.

Annt59 - Ladies Aid block from a Civil War Sampler Quilt

QuilterMomma - Clay's Choice 2 - Quilter's Cache

That is just amazing sewbiz. I never could learn to knit

Janice, in the gallery you have this block noted as being made by me, I wish I could take credit for this awesome block but it is Ibex's handy work. post #920.

Sewbiz, the quilting on your brown quilt is wonderful!!!

And I agree, the blocks everyone is posting are great. I'm glad I got to do some piecing this weekend. I've managed to misplace the name tag for this fabric ... another paper pieced block from my quilting a day calendar named "July Skies". Once I figure out who's it is, I'll clarify. I suspect it is Quiltermomma's..... Not sure. I'll post it now just cause I won't be posting again until next weekend.
