Ok Linda,  I think I'll try and make a list to keep up with who's doing what.

Thanks.  I think I will go ahead and do Playing With Jacks.  

I thought it looked familiar, but didn't recognize the name until I read Bonnie's blog.  I'm going to use one of the alternative names "Cats in the Cradle" since I have 5 cats at home and 4 cats at school.  This block always looked so complicated to me and Bonnie's directions seem easy enough.  :-)

awesome! I'm like Diane...now to choose which one to do. I know I originally voted for the "Jacks" quilt...but now that the the field is open to all of her designs...I think that now I am heading over to her site to check out other patterns. I need to find one that I know I could finish by deadline with all of the other projects that I have to get done before March. Our guild has a "UFO" challenge going right now and I made the mistake of putting 15 items on it. Small ones but still have to be done by March...so am I an idiot to add something else to the list? lol Yup, I am a quilting obsessed fool.....lol

Well let me try it- and i pick Boxy Stars. Now my next question is- does it have to be a completed quilt or is just the top OK?

I don't need to start another quilt -- I've too many in progress already. But, that apparently hasn't stopped me this time.  A couple of weeks ago I sorted my pre-cut strips and the 2 1/2" bricks/blocks by color.  So, this morning I looked to see if I could find enough 2 1/2" squares of any color to make a "boy" quilt.  I tend to make "girl" quilts.  I pulled all my blue squares and have them matched up either all three blocks the same or at least similar in tone/shade.  Then I opened the strip box.  I pulled out my red bundle.  My third color is "light" -- but I'm having to cut those strips.  These are the first 4 blocks that I've made.  I want to make another 44.
