10. Marcelle Medallion - 3 borders attached
11. Tumbler (forgot about this one!) - need to assemble top
12. Scrappy Sprouts - 2 blocks made
13. the skull - needs backing, quilting and binding; backing made and basted
14. Hexies (forgot about this one also!) - needs lots of hexies
15. Lucky Jam - 7 of 9 blocks complete
16. Xplus - need more blocks
17. Christmas in St. Louis - need backing, quilting and binding; backing made
18. Simply Herringbone - need to finish panels and assemble; backing made, basted, quilting in progress

I'm pretty happy with some of the progress so far.  I have not sewn at all since Sunday...so it's pretty darn good progress for just working over the past weekend.  I've decided that Simply Herringbone and the Skull are going to be Christmas gifts, so I really need to get those done so they can be sent off in time.  I've also been playing around with the idea of actually labeling my quilts.  I have made and either kept or gifted 32 quilts since I started quilting.  Not a single one of them have labels.  I'm ok with that, I feel zero urge to track any of them down and stick labels on them.  But lately I've been thinking it would be nice to "leave my mark" so to speak.  We'll see...the biggest thing I've been trying to figure out is HOW I want to label them.  I need to make a decision because part of the reason Simply Herringbone ISN'T finished is that I stopped quilting to decide if I was going to add a label (so that they label would be quilted over a bit and really attached to the quilt).  Decisions decisions...
