Something new on the design wall...

Tonight I figure I will show you something else on my design wall instead of my Double Wedding Ring that I am still working on.  I have 2 different projects up there tonight.  

The first one is my new leader and ender project.  Honestly, I'm not crazy about it because I don't tend to work with brighter colors but I have a tub of 2.5" squares that I just keep moving around so I figure if I use them then I will not have to keep looking at them.  LOL!  This will probably be a donation quilt once it is finished. 
 You really can't tell from this photo but there is a little bit of everything in there, from Christmas fabric to 80's fabrics.  Even some ducks and taxi cabs too.  LOL! 
 The second one I believe I will like.  Don't worry, I'm not working on it right now, I just wanted to make a couple of sample blocks to make sure I liked it before I started really piecing on it.  It is Bonnie's Rectangle Wrangle.  I have a few others that need to be finished before I jump in on this one.  I'm thinking this will be a nice winter project. 
 I am still working on my Double Wedding Ring quilt too.  Actually, I figure this will be another sleepless night for me so I will probably work on it for a bit.  Richard is off tonight but he is to the point that he can't sleep on his nights off either.  LOL! 
 That's all for now...

I like both of these patterns! I'm not much of a 'brights" gal either, but I think that quilt looks very good.

I like both of your projects, but I really do love the first one. I'm all about scrappy! :0)

Thank you for sharing! Love your rectangle wrangle! Did you finish it? I searched for the finished quilt on your site but couldn't find it. How big (tall by wide) is each little rectangle? I quilt for community service and would like to use that pattern. Thank you for your inspiration to the rest of us! <3
