Different projects!

I finished the October block designed by Dorothy Baker. If you haven't gotten the November block, it is now available.
I am caught up with the Vicksburg BOM that Dawn is sharing over at Linen Closet Quilts. The rest of the blocks are applique which I look forward to making.
I am working on getting this quilt bound. I will show the whole thing and tell you story about this quilt when I finish.

With Passion,

I'm so jealous that you are that far along on your Vicksburg quilt. I hope to get caught up over the holidays. If it were all pieced, I'd be caught up. It's looking good!

QUILTING IS BLISSFUL, DI said...

I am glad to see how the Vicksburg quilt will come together--I have the first two blocks done--need to do the 4 star blocks now and seeing how they come together will help me in picking the fabrics for them--soo thanks for sharing!!! I am also collecting the Sweet Notstalgia BOM--but haven't started them yet--and you "stole" by idea of coloring them in!!!!!
Hugs, Di
