Wouldn't it be amazing to bring all the finished quilts together?
This is convincing me why the IRL LQS BOM/BOW groups would be well worth it.

Yes, why can't LQS' be a little original?

OBTW there is a BOM on the board right now; usually start in January. I started 2010's, but then several PP blocks came up and I lost my interest, as I don't care to PP no matter how many times I have made an attempt to.

I guess the old "persistence pays" adage, has paid off!
It's such a nice reward to finish a pair of blocks, and come on and re-visit all of your beauties. I'd even forgot about some of them and the individual personalities they had taken with your fabric choices. And too, didn't remember the unique twist to simplify the Y seam issue.
#47 -- Homemaker ... Y-seams via PPing ... went with the theme for the centre fussy cut!
and
#48 -- Homeward Bound ... as someone said, how refreshing after the Homemaker!

Lovely color combos, especially on the Homemaker, but such a great contrast on 48, QE.
With the blocks I have on my flannel board, the Homemaker block just shines. Guess the difficulty of sewing was worth it!

Oh "sew" true .... patience is a virtue and pays well. Though as you noted with the Homeward Bound, sometimes simplicity shines thru! I was just looking at the colours .... wine in the Homemaker, dark rust for Homeward Bound. They look pretty the same on here, even when I go up to 200/400%. I'm thinking that'll be good to help me keep all blending together. Yes? No?
I have #49 all PPd and just need to join the pieces. Then the big five-oh!
