HocusPocusVille and an April Block

I finished my 4th Hocus Pocus Ville block.  Well.... sort of.  I don't know how to fill in the bats yet.  So I am going to think on it for a little while before I do. 
Below is block #4 in full.  I'm adding a bit of orange to every block because orange makes me smile. And every quilt needs orange in it.
Below is block #3
Below is Block #1
Below is Block #2
Another start, ha haha. I seem to start a lot of projects and feel like I don't finish much.  But here is 'April', the patterns are from 'Little House Needleworks' and was a BOM from 2010.  I saw this photo and fell in love.  I've email the stitcher, Edgar of Blacksheep's bit of the web and he helped me get started. Thank you Edgar.
I have changed some of the colors a tiny bit.  I love orange much more then yellow, so the boarder and the sun are more orange in this block.  I only have 2 more days of school left this semester and then a 2 week break before the Summer semester starts so I am hoping to get lots of stitching in those 2 weeks. :o)
