Lovin' all the ones I've seen! So many pretty variations.
Still playing around with getting #8 finished - got the piano key border together. Still have to finish stitching down sashing on back side of the four QAYG strips then assemble the whole thing.
THEN I get to start on this one! I promised myself that I wouldn't let things become additional UFOs this year. Have links to all the clues on my notes app.

I started putting my blocks together today also. They told me they wanted to be single width not doubled 
and with only the dark constant in between. It looks really great but now the darn quilt is whining that it wants to be bigger. I guess I'll make 4 more squares. This was going to be my small quilt, my 'only make the size Judy said to' quilt but here I have TWO quilts going since the 4 patches did not play nicely with the HSTs.

My border says it will be four inches wide but it"must have" a 3/4 inch stopper border that is darker than the dark constant (what a pain, I have several yards of the dark constant). I have some of the same that is solid rather than marbled so that will be darker. Anyway, I zippered mystery#9 into a project bag and am working on a Christmas tree skirt that I started a few years....hum... more than a few....years ago....wait, ok, this tree skirt is old enough to order a scotch rocks. But it will be finished today.

Love both of yours Dotty as well as all the others! These blocks are pretty and fun to make. I've been sewing and sewing today on quilt top #2 and I'm really liking it. Hope to post it in a day or two. My floral one is going to be different because I'm running low on florals. Excited about trying what's in my head but will finish #2 first.
