I've also made more progress on that Sunflower block from week 4. This one has been hand pieced. Almost to my goal of getting it done by Christmas. I just have to sew down the middle.... the brown might change colors. I also might pick out the outer green and just applique it down onto a square instead. I don't like how it is puckering.
How are you coming along on this block? I am joining up with Quilter Kathy for a slow down Sunday. I got all the kids presents wrapped this morning and tucked back away in the closet. I just need to go out to get a few groceries and some stocking stuffers for hubby and the kids and I'm calling it done. Then I can settle down with some hand stitching and relax. Head on over and see what others are working on.

The Sunflower block has a lot of little bits to hand sew. Applique sounds like a good plan. Those curved seams can be so tricky. Have a great Christmas with the kids, they are at the perfect age for it this year.
Your blocks look great! Yay for sticking with the Sunflower challenge! I have still not started and I know there won't be an opportunity between now and Christmas. Maybe during the week between Christmas and New Year's. I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas!
Love your color choices on your blocks, Merry Christmas!
Love that T block.
Kudos to you on hand piecing that block ... as much as I love hand quilting, I just don't have the patience to hand piece. ;-)
