I've been busy with EQ8, working out plans for the projects I have on the go.  I always feel more in control when I know exactly what I need to complete a project, so it's worth the time away from the sewing room.

This is how my leader-ender of Stacked Bricks will look. I haven't got the pink triangles around the edge drawn properly, but this is good enough to be going on with.

I don't know what this block is called;

I don't have time to track it down, so I'm calling it Patio because it reminds me of  Besser Breeze blocks.

This is the layout, with a pieced sashing of dark cream 'paper bag' neutrals as Bonnie calls them, and small squares to link the blocks.  It's good to find a place for those darker neutrals, I usually reject them when choosing fabric for blocks, but they are perfect for this.

I'll get these two printed out, along with the approximate yardage, and then draw up another of my WIPs. I do a count of the blocks I have, make a note of what I need, and then file the printouts with the project.  It makes it seem more achievable when I've got a handle on what needs to be done.
