Carrie, what a treat to see your blocks! It reminds me of mine when I see yours. I've missed a lot of the conversation here, so I didn't hear if you plan to set your blocks like they were set in the book? I've set some of my blocks in strips, but in a different way than the book. I'm in the 80s somewhere, so another 15 or so blocks to make. I got sidetracked with 9Patch swaps and made 2 quilt tops with those. Well, I got sidetracked with a bunch of other projects. I'm one of those that starts and has a hard time finishing. I did recently get an offer from a dear friend who said she'd quilt a top for me. That's exciting! I love to sew tops, and the love of quilting pretty much ends there. :-p
