Yay! (Almost) Accomplishment

I have finally done some sewing! I really can't remember the last time I actually did any sewing, so I've been super excited about this. I just have the final border to do for my block for Rita, but I'll be doing some ripping tonight before I finish it... I made a little uh-oh.

It's still in progress, but here's a sneak peek:


I did add some fabrics from my stash (all the greens are mine), and I really hope that Rita likes it!

If you read many quilting blogs, you might recognize the block. It was heavily inspired by these blocks that Helen has been making... aren't those gorgeous!?!
