Finishes and a little progress

Well, here is my pinwheel quilt-a-long TOP done.
For the life of me I could not find more of the same white that I used for the blocks
(I used the rest of the yardage for a gifted quilt...oops...)
so I had to find a replacement.
It is from the Blush line, so it matches...kinda.
But I am happy with it, and it's my quilt, so there :)
And (thanks to Kristine) I made mini-pinwheels in the sashing-Too cute!

And..another "finish"
back story- 3 years ago we took the numbers off of the house so that we could paint and replace them.
They were wood and had not weathered very well.
Last year I purchased new numbers
(our mailbox has the numbers on it, so we were not completely incognito!) And the hubs has been busy doing hubsy stuff so they were always left on the list...well, I crossed them off today!  WAHOO!
I still have a few places to touch up with paint to hide the holes
but hey-they're up :)

And, here is my progress on AmandaJean's Quilt-a-long #5
I am anxiously awaiting this weeks post!!

**excuse the waves...it's not pressed and the ceiling fan is on**

So...stripes...I know that I promised an update~
the day is young :) 
(which means that I have a bit more to accomplish and will post later)

Hope you have a great day!

Ahh...the last blocks

This one is my favorite.  Really.  I just really like how it looks complete all by itself.

And here is block 8.  Look familiar?  Weeeelllll...Funny story...This is how block 1 was supposed to look.  But.
I am a dork and screwed that one up (without realizing it!)  At least I liked  how it turned out!
When I was deciding what block to do for the last one, I laid out all the other blocks.  This one looked like it would "fit in" the most.
HA! HA! HA!  I crack myself up :)

And these were pretty easy too.

block 1 & 2

We're going to take this a little slllooowwwly.  There are 8 blocks total.  I used Blush by Basic Grey.  I really really like the way the browns and pinks and blues go together so well! 
Here are the 1st 2.
