    No your are a nut. I have seen a few quilts done here on QB made from mini's. I would not try it just because I don't have the patience for it. Go for it it will be a beautiful quilt.

    I think it will take some time, but will be worth it. Be sure to show us as you go along.

    If you can do it, go for it. Personally, I don't plan on doing any blocks less than 6 inches. LOL

    yes. you are nuts. :lol:

    keep in mind, though, that nuts come in a wide variety and make healthy, tasty treats. they're the most expensive items in the snack aisle. so they must be a very good thing. ;-)

    ^^^LOL @ Patrice!

    It kinda reminds me of the Dear Jane quilts....soooooo much sewing, but in the end, a satisfying project, you think?
