Hi Quiltncrazy
Glad you liked the pattern that I chose. It took me most of 3 months to finish the whole blanket for by great neice using this block. But it was fun doing it. I'm sure you will feel the same way when you get your teeth into it.
Don't worry about acquiring too much fabric. We all find a use for it at some point in time. The fun part is looking for a perfect pattern to use it in. I'm looking forward to seeing what you make with all that fabric you have accumulated.
By the way, we're all a little 'crazy" when it comes to quilting and buying fabric for our hobby. That's what makes it so much fun to do and to share with great people like those on this Quilting Board.
