New Challenge

What do you think of these?   I joined the Inland Valley Modern Quilt Guild and am challenging myself to try to go out of my "comfort range"in fabric selection and see if I can make a Mod Quilt.
These are fat quarters I won online.  Are they modern enough?  I'll put them up on my design wall so I can think about what pattern to use.  And in the meantime, I've ordered a solid and am going to try my hand at it.

UFO #11

Neonatal quilt done, so ufo #11 is off my list.  Now the fabric was NOT my choice.  This was a kit I got at the last sew day devoted to neonatal quilts.  Too psychadelic for me - LOL.  I hope the preemie who gets this one doesn't get traumatized.  Then seeing how these are draped over the neonatal units, I picked a more soothing back for it since that is what the baby will see.  And it is below:

October Doings

October is behind us.  Does that put us in the Winter months?  I think it does. The skies have been foggy in the mornings - a thick fog that...
