I'm doing it. Finally figured out a use for all my 1" squares that I've been saving. I'm going to make a miniature quilt (maybe bigger, I have a ton of 1" squares).

I have over 50 of these basted, but wanted to share my first flower with everyone!

One small flower.

That is going to be really beautiful when done! I just did 1" square, half square triangles for the border of the last quilt that I made. Lots of work but fun at the same time and it turned out to be a great border technique! I'm currently cutting all my scraps to 1.5" for a postage stamp quilt. Love the mini stuff!!

I like your hexies flower. It will be fun.

I am working with 1" and find it addicting. I am making a doll quilt for our show next March.

You're right, definitely insane but what a fabulous little work of art you'll have when you're done.
