Jingle BOM Applique Block 8 Completed!

Jingle BOM Applique Block 8

I've finished another applique block for the Jingle BOM (Block of the Month) quilt I'm working on!  This is my husband's favorite block so far, so it's kind of fitting that I finished it up on his birthday.  Happy birthday, Sweetie!  Of course, looking at the pictures, now it is bothering me that when I "eyeballed" the placement of the circles in the very center of the block, I was off and it's CROOKED.  But I do love the print fabric that I used on those four large petals -- I've had that in my stash forever and this is the first time I've been able to use it.

Before you all start congratulating me on my progress, know that I still have not even started applique block 7, the large center medallion applique, and I am behind 5 pieced blocks as well.  So the odds are, this is NOT going to be done in time for Christmas 2013.  Which is fine; after all, it's all about the process, not a race to the finish line!

Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!
