This may or may not be the final block layout. I need to get the blocks up on the design wall and play a bit before that's a done deal. Chocolate Marshmallows was started in 2014. It was a BOM quilt along over at Sea Breeze Quilts. I've not been able to find the block patterns, I need to check with Amanda to see if they are still available. At any rate, the plan is to get moving on this project next.
There's been good progress on getting the binding stitched down on Rhododendron (Bonnie Hunter).
I turned the third corner last night. Another 40 to 50 inches of stitching left and this will be a finished quilt. That should be doable today. I'd like to be able to count it as a finish on my PHD report for September.
The planned finish for October is just waiting for me to start on the the hand stitching.
Diatom (Quilting Jetgirl) is a wedding gift for one of Grad Girl's friends. I'm hoping to have it finished before I go visit her later in October.
I have lots to keep me busy this week. Linking up with Design Wall Monday and Patchwork & Quilts.

I love the setting you have designed for Chocolate Marshmallows, and I can't wait to see Rhododendron and Diatom finished!
That pink quilt is beautiful. Great job!!
Great layout for Chocolate Marshmallow. Soon, two quilts will be finished? Wow, and I love this purple batik binding on Rhododendron. Thank you for sharing these pretty WIP.
Good luck putting in the final stitches today!
Hi Kate, you're doing such great progress on all of your quilts. I'm not getting anything old finished because I keep starting new small projects! Take care.
How fun to be able to use EQ to help in the design process. I can not wait to see the progress of Chocolate Marshmallows. Have a wonderful day stitching, Kate. Hugs
Chocolate Marshmallow is a fun color combination! Congratulations on two almost finishes, too. Looks like you're really close!
Your chocolate marshmallow looks great! It reminds me of a small exhibit I saw when I went to a quilt show in Ireland. The exhibit had a name like "chocolate candy" or something. All the quilts were done in browns and other colors. I really like how you've done this one. Makes me think of chocolate-covered cherries.
Chocolate Marshmallow is really pretty. 10 years old huh? I like the blocks, they remind me a little of the Riley Blake quilt-alongs I did for a couple years. Yours are very cohesive. I've probably asked you before, but do you have a longarm? Your quilting looks great! Did GG pick out the fabric for her friend?
