Sunday sewing, Poseidon top completed

I added 5 rows to the length of the original top, then added a first border of ash gray.  Then a light green and ending with a light turrquoise.  I may want to sleep on top of it rather than under it, such pretty ocean colors!









 
Next I made the Designer Mystery BOMs, quite a simple block, and I'll probably get February's block in the mail tomorrow.  Since this Poseidon top is now done, I will next get it pinned and on the UFO pile.  Meanwhile the last old project, my bento box quilt top, I have pulled out and made one block and cut lots of pieces.  Need to pull out some different blues to add to the mix before making more blocks.
One thing I have noticed in working on old projects started years ago, is that I am at a different place now than I was when I started them, and probably would not be starting these particular quilts today.  But I'll still finish them and probably donate somewhere (except the Poseidon!).
