Two Finishes and Two Starts

"In The Garden" is now a done. I finally put together 12 compatible blocks and figured out how I wanted to sash them. I searched in my stash for fabric that would work and I found some....trying not to purchase anymore fabric is a priority to me and I think I did ok with this one. 
All those paper pieced blocks!
Since my last post I have quilted  In The Garden and now Knitters Gifts.  I rented time on a longarm at Bear's to finish the them and here they are:
Knitters Gifts
59" x 80"
In the Garden
51" x 67"
I absolutely love the blocks in this quilt:

Sewing Under Rainbow


Hard to believe but although I tell myself ALL THE TIME to finish, finish, finish - I continue to start new projects. At Road To California I bought 2 kits. The first kit is called MOD TV - Ann my friend also bought this. We thought it would be a good project to work on at our Tuesday night sewing class. I have made pretty good progress on it, finishing the 20 blocks, I am ready to start to construct the flimsy.

Then I saw a video on YouTube about a quilt called Cutting Corners and just had to try it. Here is my design wall and the progress on that one:
