Nice block Lori, it looks just like some ornaments I have. Very festive.

I have 3 done, may try a few more today. The units are all done. Squaring up each piece before sewing together. Seems to help. Also focusing on just pressing and not ironing.

Pretty block Valerie. This will be a pretty quilt.

Mary, it's a fun block, but has many pieces as most of Lori Holt's patterns do.

Beautiful blocks Lori and Val.

I am going to sneak in some sewing time today. Hopefully I will get more than one block sewn together today. I just got home from the dentist and need to get some cleaning done before going to the sewing room.

Wow, time is flying by so fast, 3 weeks and 4 days till mailing deadline......25 days!!!! Still plenty of time even if only half a block a day was completed 😊
I'm looking forward to sorting day, all your blocks are so pretty! This is going to be a very festive Christmas quilt ❤❤
I'm also looking forward to cooking temps, we were 100° yesterday with a reel feel of 109° I have to say I'm thinking of snow! ☃️❄❄❄☃️☃️☃️❄❄❄☃️

They are almost done. I still need to embroider the string, then pack them up and ship them off.

5 done, this block is proofing to be a challenge. I have 2 more ready to sew together and just need to square up the components of last 5 and stitch together. I really thought this one would be easy.

Valerie, you are doing great! You got this ❤❤
Sorry I was gone all day and most of yesterday, I've been learning online schooling for a 1st grader and 8th grader and just learned what I learned yesterday and today has been changed 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️ I feel for ALL the kids.
Happy sewing ❤❤

I just got home from work. After I make a grilled cheese sandwich for supper I'm going to work on a couple more rows of my trees...
