These browns came from the fat eighth bin at my LQS. I found the houndstooth at a shop in Huntsville. I'm not sure how I'm going to finish these so I think they will go into timeout for a while. I used my 4 inch Qube for cutting out the pieces. I call these browns "coffee colors": black coffee, coffee with cream, and how my mom drinks coffee!

Finished that coffee!
I am so happy that I finished these today! I will need to make backs and decide if I'm going to send these to the quilter but I'm counting them done.
I made this Star Wars scarf out of some leftover blue fabric and white flannel from Hancocks'. I really like the Millennium Falcon-it was my favorite from Star Wars growing up. I'm going to add buttons and buttonholes to make it a convertible infinity scarf.
I'd like to make a Darth Vader one for my girlfriend I'm hoping to see next month. Will have to see if that happens!

seventh and a cup of coffee
So here is my seventh block. I am out of HSTs so if I want to keep going I'm going to have to spend an evening cutting.And I started trying to lay out this project last night. I think I am just going to cut the panel blocks down to match the pieced blocks in size. I also have some coordinating fabric that I plan to use for the sashing. We'll see how that goes!

let's have another cup of coffee. . .
So I needed a new set of leaders and enders last night while I was working on the sixth Cool Yule block. And I accidentally ended up finishing these blocks. I started these using the Disappearing Pinwheel tutorial from Missouri Star Quilting. I meant to trim each segment but forgot. My plan is to use the four of these on a wall hanging and two for a table runner. I need to trim all of these blocks and get out the printed panel and trim that as well. Should be fairly easy to knock out now that I have these blocks finished. Aunt Cindy gave me this fabric ages ago. I'm hoping to use every bit of it on this project.
