It took me a while to figure out how I was piecing the blocks after having this project sit for so long. I managed to get 2 rows of blocks finished at our day long retreat. I then worked on the remaining 5 blocks Friday night during the Friday Night Sew-In and then finished them and assembled the blocks into rows and joined the rows together on Saturday morning. You can see a couple of pieces of fabric that I am auditioning for borders in the photo: a yellow inner border and a blue outer border vs a yellow inner border and a green outer border.<\/p>\n<p>Once the borders are done later today, I will be ready to think about a &#8220;reward project&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_VOQOwkbSspA\/TTvMGyoyi3I\/AAAAAAAAGWI\/U9A5suBNGNs\/s1600\/DSC_0227.JPG\"><img decoding=\"async\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_VOQOwkbSspA\/TTvMGyoyi3I\/AAAAAAAAGWI\/U9A5suBNGNs\/s400\/DSC_0227.JPG\"><\/a><br \/>These are two snowman panels that surfaced when I was going through my Christmas fabrics in December.
