Thank you all so much for your kind words and input! I will be sure to post photo when finished but fore warning it will be quite a while. I will put it on this thread, though. :). For a King size, it takes 144 (9" finished fold/sew) blocks. I have only done 24 thus far. A bit daunting when I look at the numbers, lol. It is all being done completely by hand being my machine and I aren't getting along. It will be 12 blocks across by 12 down.... I am working in 4 block units for ease of handling. Doesn't seem as daunting knowing I only have to do 36 units in all. :). Your wonderful encouragement has helped tremendously to convince me to carry on. Thank you!!! A friend of mine has started one at the same time so we keep up with each other not allowing one to surpass the other, lol.
