BOMs Away - Marine Corps Detour

 


Welcome to the Link-Up for BOMs Away Mondays! 
We'd love to see the BOM you're working on lately. 
This week's link-up is at the bottom of the post.


Hi! Did you guys have a good Easter last week? We enjoyed the fantastic weather and some nice family time. I'm sorry I didn't even post for BOMs Away because of that. I'm betting you understand, though.  :)

 So, this week I'm back on track for posting, although for the foreseeable future, these days will be detoured into work on the Marine Corps quilt and top secret project in prep for the kids' wedding.

 So today I put together a tall stack of these ribbon border pieces.


They're ready now for the Y-seam work putting the other green cross piece between these.

 They'll get added to the center after a red floater border. (I've got it pinned to the quilt that's hanging in this room right now.)

So, how about you guys? Did you get some work done on your BOMs?

    I love it! I tried to make a marine corp quilt and used too much red/white/blue.....it just didn't work. You've given me much needed inspiration.
