I have the bias strips cut for the vines but I haven't got around to cutting more fabric off the bolt and getting it washed and dried for the borders. I'm also reconsidering the design of the vines. I layed it out on the bed with the strips and I wasn't thrilled with how it looked.
The blocks are from May 2010 issue of American Quileter magazine, I added the hearts and border.

Thanks for the vote of confidence, Pat, as I'm new to actually-diving-in quilting this week! I'm so excited about this BOM but I'm not sure my skills are great enough to follow, even for one block. Someday I may jump in though. :thumbup:
