    Your son picked them, let him iron and cut them! Seriously, I'm sure he can iron, and if you show him how to cut them he will probably do just fine. That way you are working with them in small doses that you may be able to handle.

    It's funny how something like that can mess with our brains.
    Some people with seizure disorders are prone to having seizures when looking at certain busy patterns. I hope that working from the back of the fabric will be easier on you. I agree that this will make a great quilt--good luck!

    The first one is exactly like the bathroom floor tile we had in an apartment years ago. :D

    Try working on it from the back side. It makes me dizzy, too!

    Add some solid black and whites squares or maybe use sashings between the squares. I'd probably look up a pattern somewhere that would work in some way with that material used in squares.
