Any of the BOMs that I like I am making in Christmas fabrics through the year and that way I will have all the blocks for a sampler quilt by the end of summer.
I still need to make the March block in Christmas fabrics but this one was quick and easy to do so I made it up first.
On the agenda for today is trying to get a customer quilt done so I can deliver it at our guild meeting tonight. We have a trunk show on quilted jackets so that should be a good evening.
I guess my goals for this week are just to get as much done on customer quilts as possible as I have several other things going on next week and want to get ahead. I have both a long meeting plus a two day retreat next week so won't leave much time to get anything else done.
Have a great week.

Only two blocks but they sure are cute :) Sounds like you have a full week ahead!
What a great way to make a sampler quilt -- a few at a time. Keep it up.
I joined our guild and just can't get to the meetings. Sounds like a fun time tonight!! Your sampler is going to be very cute.
Good thinking on doing Christmas fabrics for you BOM blocks. Yes, you will have enough and be ready for Christmas 2011.
Great way to get a Christmas quilt! Pretty clever. :) Love this block.
Aren't you the clever one. Making two blocks each month will give you a nice count for a top. If they aren't the same size consider using the Twist and Turn method to make them all the same. It's really a neat technique and adds a bit to any block. Ask Betty to explain if you've not seen it. Wish I was retreating with you. Mine is coming in June and Betty will be joining me! Sandi
Love your idea of doing a separate x-mas BOM on the side! Good luck in getting custome rquilts doen this week!
