Once I get a couple more quilts quilted I am going to take a break for a day and hopefully work on some more of these blocks and maybe get a Christmas present quilted. I have no idea how many blocks I can make with the FQ package so won't know until I get all of them done how much border fabric to look for. I would like this to be a longish lap quilt so that you can cover your toes while sitting in a recliner.
I am setting no goals for this week. I will get done as much as I can but no specifics. I have several errands including a trip to DMV to do this week plus my daughter is having all four of her wisdom teeth out wednesday so I will be playing nurse for the first 24 hours. I have been saving up some bindings to work on that day so that I can be upstairs close to her but still getting something done. So I know I will accomplish a whole lot less than usual this week but being mom comes first.

Yuck on the wisdom teeth removal. But it is one way to get binding done. Hope all goes well for her.
Love your batik project!
Your blog comments are set for "no reply" so I wanted to tell you that I was not particularly inspired to try that arrowhead block but once I saw the demo and how fun it was...I was hooked! I am a little nervous about all the bias edges, but I'll try my best!
Love the colors and your beautiful quilt
I love the way the fabrics look together too.
I like how your Batik project is moving forward and I hope this week you find time to move it along a bit. If there isn't enough fabric for the size you want add several borders to get it. Do you have all your customer holiday quilts done? My long arm quilter has one more to do still. Wishing your daughter not so much discomfort. A TV tray works and a small cutting mat/ruler work well for a mobile cutting area.
The purple and green is very soothing together, like that a lot. HOpe your daughter's surgery goes well and she recovers fast.
You can leave this on your design wall forever--I'll never tire of seeing it! It's really beautiful! :)
the quilt is lovely-hope the wisdom teeth extraction goes well.
