Gingerbread Boys

I started loading the Gingerbread Boys quilt onto Mo'e last night - probably wasn't a good idea because this is what I did....
I loaded the backing on with the RIGHT SIDE UP.  Thank goodness I noticed it before I pinned the bottom onto the ender sleeve.  Unpinned and flipped it over then repinned.

Managed to get two blocks quilted along with part of the sashing.  I left the border unquilted because I'm still not sure how I want to stitch it - it can wait until I get the center done.

Got the third block ( and sashing) for the first row done this morning.  IF I can stick with it, I should be able to get at least most of it done today - if not all of it.

As for the I Love My All stars blocks... after I took the Goodnight Irene top off from my design wall and started to put the All stars blocks into rows, I realized that I've been making more of the side views than I might need.  The second row is all front views...it'll work out, but I'll probably have to do some 'finegaling' in order not to have blocks left over.  I'll work on it later... now it's back to the GB.

What to work on next

 I finished the two gift quilts - and both have been delivered to a parent of the little girl recipient. I have the requested photo from one...
