I agree the blocks are not difficult just a lot of them!

Are you making the blocks in the set 2 of each different colors. You do not want all the "floating crosses" all the same color combination. Only make 2 of each color combo in eash set. So to put a set in a bag with the position it goes in may noit work since you may not like the color placement whe you are actually putting the quilt together.

Did you buy a ket?that may make it easier to mae the color combos. Actually there are 76 blocks made from 15 sets not counting the HST. I followed her directions and they were not too bad to make. Just be carefull not to stretch then when pressing them open.
