Dutchman's Puzzle

Today was a rainy day making it a great day to work on my UFOs
A couple years ago Missouri Star Quilt had a video for making the Dutchman's Puzzle block/quilt.  Continuing with my mission to use up my stash fabrics - I found large amounts of a few blue fabrics that worked out perfect for this quilt.  The size of the quilt I made was as large as the fabrics would make blocks, so it ended up a good size of 85" by 85".  This was a very simple pattern and being larger squares this quilt was pieced together very quickly, but today I finally quilted it.

My piles of UFOs is dwindling down to a handful.  During April I've pieced a couple new quilt tops and I want to make sure that they get quilted and I don't end up adding them to my UFO pile.  With April winding down and May a couple days away I'm hoping to tackle one of those quilts tomorrow.
Like so many quilters/sewers I've been side tracked sewing face masks for family and friends.  I've made and mailed about 100.  Recently I've had a request for six more masks.  I think I'll make a couple extra for backup.  Put that on my to-do list.
