One hundred forty scrappy blocks.
I started this project about mid-September 2012. We are now about 9 months and nearly 3000 pieces of fabric later. My thanks to Susan for the design and Michelle for her lovely suggestion.
My plan is to make twin twin quilts, meaning two twin-sized quilts. Some people I know have a guest room with two twin sized beds just begging for quilts. Or, at least we’ll hope so. It is a planned present.
First, of course, there is assembly and quilting and binding and all those steps, but I can say this step is FINISHED.
Which means I have only one active quilt. Something must be done about that. Perhaps I can balance desire and duty by starting one new quilt and pulling out one UFO. Three at a time seems a good quilting schedule for me. 🙂

Don’t make me hate you, friend! I feel like a slug compared to you! I have to get busy!
wish I had your ambition.
Sounds good to me! 3 provides enough variety.
I really love this one and also have one of these started..i have lots of UFOs and I really need to do something about that but I do love this one..keep up the good work of always having something going, something waiting and something you have just finished…you’ll never be bored…
1 1/2″ squares? I think I’ll have to pass on that one! I have too many million 2 1/2″ squares calling to me 😀
3000 pieces of fabric!? I love quilts but I’m not sure I have the patience to do it myself
Great scrappy quilt. Sure to look good in your friends guest room.
I plan to use 2 inch squares finished to 1 1/2. or 2 1/2 finished to 2 inches for a larger quilt. I will have to do the finishins sizes but have charts for that.Geneva
Deanna – Those quilts are going to be soooooo cute!! I can’t wait to see them finished!!
