Ok, out of my poor poor pitiful me funk and back to the quilting.
I did play with EQ and decided on a layout (no sashing) still don't know about a border but one thing at a time! At least I know how many blocks to make and that's a start.
I've decided to go with off-whites, I have another project I want to use my white-on-whites with and since I'm submitted myself to the fabric buying moratorium, I don't have enough for both.
Trimmed down some random strips to the correct size and put the too-small ones in the crumb pile. I'll sew a few of those together but I will be spending a couple of days at my Mom's this coming week taking her to doctor appointments and such, and I think cutting down the existing random combinations will be a good thing to do at her house. Then I can see how many I've done and how many I have to go. Don't want to get too far ahead of myself.
