CQJP 2012 update.

I added some more lace and beads to my purple block, and have decided enough is enough for that one.
My February block is a red one (Valentines Day inspired) and I put the fabrics together last night. I'm looking forward to playing with this as I have lots of ideas for embellishment. Last year when I signed up for this challenge, I wondered if I'd be able to keep up. The way I'm feeling now, I think I will be well ahead all year! I just love fondling my beautiful silk ties, and matching up the fabrics for my blocks. It doesn't take long to do the basic block, and if that is done early in the month, I have three weeks to play with it. That still leaves time to work on other projects sitting in the wings.
