I spent far more time than I should have looking for things first thing this morning. First the fabrics, then the completed blocks. Like, I knew I had seen the wonky log cabin block - not even that long ago - but could I find it??? Determined that I wasn't going to start it again, I just kept looking, and luckily did manage to find it lumped into other projects. I will never get a good housekeeping award :0)
I finished the wonky log cabin... which I LOVE
made the Greek cross... which I LOVE
and then finished the Octagon block (which turned out better than I thought even though I chose the ugliest fabric out of the bundle) and the wonky 5 sided shape block (not the greatest improv block ever made - the top block in the first picture), so will reserve judgement until all the other blocks have been made.
As you may remember this project is a combination of two separate Craftsy BOM classes. So far most of these blocks are from the BOM with Amy Gibson. A lonely two blocks belong to the Civil war quilt with Kaye England. I really need to do a couple more of these blocks (maybe tomorrow), but they involve a lot more pieces and tricky triangles... then once I've got some more scraps, I'll reread the instructions for the spiderweb block - we'll see how it goes.
All in all, not a bad start to the holidays. Now I suppose I should do the dishwasher which has been somewhat overlooked in the order of things today!

Very good start to the holidays. Do you not work in the school holidays ( I mean paid work BTW)
I just love your fabric choices!
Good start! I need to attend to the dishes too - many more are made in the holidays it seems.
But I've already crossed two things off my list that I wanted to get done so I'm feeling productive too.
