APIP#4 and APIP#6 - Joseph's Coat of Many Colors; I have been working primarily on these two projects this past week. I will be teaching the block to my club this Wednesday and needed to really get comfortable with making the blocks. I am enjoying doing these curved pieced blocks and hope my club will enjoy them as well. I am making a quilt 60" x 68" and a much smaller table topper.

| Blocks made for the quilt so far. No melon fabric will be repeated in the quilt. I was auditioning the fabric to be used for the center circle and have chose the black and white polka dot. |
 |
| Table Topper I made for kitchen table. Kitchen is grey with red accents. I chose to use just greys, reds, yellows and teals. |
APIP#1 - Merryton; I did complete the third Block 1 blocks, one more to go.
 |
| Have to make four of these. I have the applique shapes prepped and ready to applique. |
APIP#8 - Spellbound Block; I taught this block at retreat and finished mine at home this morning.
APIP #5 - Christmas Ornament - Candle Wreath; I am making three of these and have the embroidery completed on two of them, started the third this afternoon. It was so pretty outside, I took my sewing to the porch and enjoyed the beautiful weather. I learned that I can not do my embroidery very well outside - too distracted. had to rip out what I did this afternoon and start over when I went inside. These are Mary Corbet designs and very detailed.

Oh how I adore Joseph's Coat blocks! Back in 2009, I joined Kellie Wulfsohn's (Don't Look Now) along to make a quilt this way. Each petal was edge-turned around a hand-cut piece of Stitch and Wash. I found it extremely difficult to get the petal points to meet, and soon after gave up on the project. Are you appliquéing your petals? If you're interested, you can still find Kellie's along blog posts. I hope your teaching goes well.
