I am making a Civil War quilt. It calls for 25 blocks for a queen size, but I am so tired of it already that I am struggling to finish it. I made 16 blocks, each block is 15 1/5 sq. Each block will be sashed a second time with the same fabric as the first sashing and with corner post. My thought is to stripe the sashing - the camel color with a narrow stripe of black in the middle. I want it to cover a queen size bed. I will add a narrow border and a wider border to the outside - using two of the fabric in the blocks.

Have you ever worked on a quilt that you just felt you did not want to finish ...but did anyway? I am finishing the quilt, but without joy. Help!!

here are my blocks and the layout. Next is the second sashing, then the borders.
