Last coffee quilt blocks

All of my coffee quilt blocks are done! I did the last two over the weekend. Wanna see? Here's November...

And here's December...
Something a little sad? I went to post them to the Flickr group I belong to and I wasn't allowed in. I guess since I hadn't posted since my October block, they deleted the "inactive" members. *sniff* It's okay, really. I'll make my quilt anyway, all by myself. *sniff*

To cheer myself up, I squared up all the blocks and then figured out how much fabric I'll need for sashing and borders. Then I went onto Desperate Quilters and got some great deals on Fig Tree fabrics. I'll show them to you when they arrive. There, I do feel better! A little retail therapy always works!

So how was your New Year's? Dave and I stayed up til midnight, and the kids almost made it. We woke them up a few minutes before 12 and then they promptly went to bed about 5 minutes later. LOL I like our cozy New Year's Eves, I'm never hungover and I get to eat a whole bunch of leftover Christmas cookies!

Don't forget to check back on Tuesday (January 4th)...I'll be announcing the winner of the Gooseberry Patch cookbook, Homestyle in a Hurry! Leave a comment on last week's post to enter!

    Love the quilt blocks. I will look forward to seeing it completed. Your New Years eve sounds a lot like ours. We had two of our grandchildren who were asleep by 10:30 and we did manage to watch the fireworks on the Space Needle in Seattle on TV and say Happy New Year and go right to sleep. My kind of celebrating.

    Jen,
    Love the blocks! At least you are finished with all the blocks.
    A little retail therapy does us all good!
    We had a very quiet New Years Eve.
    Hugs,
    Donna

    Now that's a bummer. But I like your blocks. I need to decide what I'm going to work on for 2011. I need a couple of projects. do I start new or dig in the stash to finish something up. Decisions, decisions.

    I love how these blocks have all turned out. Can't wait to see how you finish it. I can't tell you how happy it makes me to see someone making more with my little cups! xo
