Red face Should have done the math first

Making a double wedding ring using batiks and want it to be queen size. I've been cutting and sewing and cutting and sewing have a wonderful time..will be scrappy.

Looked at the directions...need 54 blocks..not bad....BUT need over 250 arcs and need 6 small pieces to make ONE arc. Been working for two days...have 54 arcs done.

This is gonna take awhile..don't cha think?

Look at it this way--you have more than 20% done!

You can't have 100% done til after you have 20% done. Keep at it!

It may take some time but I bet it will be beautiful when you are done.
