Here are three examples. The tulips could use a press, sorry.

Debbie, I love your blocks! Thank you, Julie! I use a binder too Grace. In fact, I started using one for this BOM thread when it started. I just slip the patterns for each month into a sleeve and place the completed blocks into the back of it. I feel much more organized doing that.

I love using binders for everything. I will start using that idea once I get started with this BOM!

Katie, I love your applique! Thanks for sharing your work. For some reason I have always thought applique would be so difficult and have shied away from it. Maybe, I should start with just one block. I would love to make a soft baby book.

Thank you Judith. I find it very rewarding to see all the individual pieces come together to make a picture. It certainly makes you practice the blanket stitch, I can tell you, lol. A soft baby book would be lovely!
I on the other hand shy away from points

So in August you post a new pattern to sew? Maybe I can start there you gals can step me through it? In the meantime, I'll breakout the quilting books and start reading at night.
