That's gorgeous! I can't wait to see it when you finish.
I had the Moderna and the second one made me sick for a whole weekend but then I was fine.
My husband had no side effects whatsoever.
Keep up the good work and attitude!

The original pattern says it's 74" x 83" but since I shaved off half an inch on everything, I'm not sure what the final size will be on mine, I haven't measured my blocks. I know it's 7 x 8 blocks, then the inner border is 2.5" wide and the outer border is 4". I just finished getting dressed, turned the Keurig on, and logged on, so I haven't installed my math brain into my head yet, lol. The original size of the 45*'s was 5 inches, I dropped it down to 4.5".
The plan today is more piecing, I'm absolutely in love working with my mini-iron, I'm kicking myself for not getting one sooner. I'm going to stay on track with putting the blocks together like a nine-patch, if I come across an issue while I'm putting them together, I'd rather have to tear down nine blocks versus however many rows I've done. I'm really hoping to have this pieced by the next VQW so I can get back to my big sister's quilt. I have committed to one more Roundabout quilt in greens.
