Better to Be DONE

I've never done a Block of the Month (BOM) of any sort... way too much responsibility and discipline for me. Well, this year I am participating in a BOM with one of my dear quilting friends... the shop that is doing the BOM has several going at the same time. Ours is the "Last Saturday of the Month-BOM". The trick to most of these deals is that you must get the first one done before you can go by the shop to pick up the next installment. Each installment has instructions and the fabric for completing the block. Well, we did a prototype of the block out of stash fabrics before we ventured into the "real" block construction. The thought was that we could get the mistakes over with on the prototype. An after thought was that it would give us enough extra blocks at the end of the year for a nice charity quilt... reasonable, we thought.

Yesterday we finally sat down to work up the real block.....
DONE...
Now I can go in with my head held high and my hand out (for my next block)
