I work better when the space is organized. When I have the stuff that I'm working on layed out, know what's done or not, what's cut or not, I feel more in control of what I'm doing instead of the chaos controlling me. :-D
The stack at the back is the 8 1/2" sashing strips, 80 of them, with the blocks between them in front, 3 of each color, and the colored petals in front of that, 4 of each.

I have the 3rd row done so far today. I've been back and forth, stopping in the sewing room for a little bit of work, then out again. I'll sew the sashing row to the row of blocks before sewing the section to the rest. It's easier to handle that way.
5 more rows to go and I realized that my granddaughter's birthday is the last week of this month. I could probably get it done by then but I have half the blocks left to applique still. If I don't feel comfortable with doing an outline or custom quilting yet, I could use the curlicue hearts panto that I have. I think that would go OK with the quilt. The colored flower petals are heart shaped.

Whata an amazing job. Thank you for all of the lessons: Organization of your work space, applique tips, pressing tips, color schemes, layouts,etc. It will look fantastic when you are finished and your granddaughter will be thrilled.
