I've decided that I'm not going to make a block for every pound I lose - I just don't have the time to make a block or two every week. So I have found a sampler pattern (actually it was made by someone on this board and used as her avatar - such a gorgeous quilt!!) and it has 84 blocks. That is more blocks than pounds I want to lose so..... I'm going to make the blocks in bulk as I lose mine - bulk, that is!

When I lose 10 pounds, I will make the 10 star blocks all at the same time. Then when 20 pounds are gone I will make the 20 heart blocks all at the same time, etc..

So at the end of my journey, next fall, I will pretty well have all the blocks made, ready to put together.

Wish me luck!
