In the interests of creating a bit of pressure to actually FINISH a quilt each for my children, I thought I'd post a couple of pics of where I'm up to ... two (only TWO!!) finished blocks each, and a few almost-finished blocks. Not good. At all.
The first is to be purple and green, with a little bit of light blue. Here's what I've done so far:
We're going with a randomly-sized log cabin design, which I figure I can square up later with a few solids. Two finished blocks, and three started-blocks. Not much light blue in evidence, though I see a bit of red and pink have crept in. Very heavy on the Heather Ross designs I'm noticing too, and Lizzy House.
OK and here's the second - it's to be light blue and yellow, with a little bit of red:
Each block in this one is to be a house - two finished so far - on the left and right. And two kind-of-started-blocks. There is to be an Alexander Henry little round-the-world person inside each house, so at least that's working so far. And there's definitely a lot of yellow and red in evidence. I need to bump up the light blue.
So. A bit of work to be done. Hopefully they'll be finished before anyone graduates high school and leaves home.
