I am slowly but surely making progress on the June Schnibble for AYOS. I have been having a busy summer so I have only been able to sew a couple blocks a day. This month is the Leap Year pattern. It comes with a couple different variations. I chose to do the 49 patch block. I have also decided to make it a wee bit bigger. I plan on making 20 blocks instead of 16.
I have 9 blocks finished and up on the design wall.

I have two blocks laid out on some tiny design boards I made from Lori's tutorial.
These mini design boards are awesome. I had been laying the pieces out on my cutting mat, but they kept shifting. So I whipped up these two mini design boards and the squares stay right where I want them.

I have one block on the machine,
and 8 ready to be laid out. These 8 blocks are short a few fabric squares though. They each need one more pink color and one more green but I have used all the bright greens and pinks in my stash. Since I don't want more than 4 of each fabric in the block, this means I get to go shopping for Pink and Green fabrics today!
Yay! :)

I love your colors! Ack! I need to get sewing!! ;-) Have a happy day!!
