isewman, I started quilting about two months ago. I did my first quilt (lap) about a month into this adventure.
Since then, I've made somewhere between 10 and fifteen different blocks to get some practise with ever increasing difficulty. I got stumped on my last star block, which is the last I posted on this thread, and decided to take one of the star blocks, and do a lot of colour variations.
So, I am in the process of cutting out about 560 four inch squares. I'm trying to match colours as I cut, and pile the cut squares for each block together in preparation for putting all of it together.
