BOM-traditional quilt

I am taking part in a mystery bom at my LQS this year. I tried to do one last year but for me, Saturdays are family days and I am not always in town. I am going to try again this year. The LQS has two blocks to choose from. One is an original applique and the other is traditional piecing. I am making both but doing my own color scheme. Maybe (maybe) the traditional quilt can be for my bed. The applique quilt is a Noah's Ark. I haven't finished that one yet. My dil is going to make that one too and so I am waiting to get together with her in case she needs help. My middle child (daughter) is making the traditional quilt. I am hoping that with all 3 of us working on them this year that it will help us all be at the LQS every 2nd Saturday of each month to pick up our next block. It's really a deal if we can do it! We pay $6 for block 1 and then if we bring it back the next month finished, the next block is free. So. We could have quilts by the end of the year that only cost us $6 to make, minus finishing costs. Not bad, eh?!
