What's New? - not me

Still trying to get the quilter to work right so I will post some other things going on.

Deb and I shared at the Guild Program this week. Here is her quilt from our stepmom Jan that tells the story of Deb's family. It is a king size beauty filled with awesome details.
Then Deb showed her finished Christmas bird quilt top that I really adore. This pic doesn't do it justice.

That is her show and tell except for the Sew Simplicity BOM which I will share later along with mine.

All the blocks are done!

I've made some different blocks and chose final ones for my quilt top.
This shows the choice of sashing and border fabrics.
Am ready to finish sewing the top together for the final quilt.

More blocks finished

so more choices for the final layout.
Here's a variation on the curved Drunkard's Path

This is a curved Rail Fence block

Pics help me design

Finished all my six Curve It Up blocks and ready to border. I am finding that photos help me decide block layouts as I am able to see options and mill it over by accessing the camera shots. On the PC they can be viewed in black n white too for contrast, and so on.
I wasn't happy with the last three blocks' color choices but they work and after all it is a scrappy 'old and new' fabrics work. This is another layout. I'm still deciding. Input welcome.

oh, the last three blocks are the center, center left, and bottom left. Curvy Geese, Churn Dash and Drunkard's Path.

Side Tracked Now it is Sew Done!

from the curvy quilt blocks to throw together this girly diagonal block quilt
Borders ?
I though of soft yellow then the blue. Deb P. thinks pink and perhaps in a ruffle. What's your idea?
