Thank you. :) This is the one in my avatar. I have 4 rows done and sewn together and half of the HSTs for the next 24 blocks are done. I started putting the parts on the design wall last night to decide on fabric placement for the rest of the blocks.

I really love those blocks and the applique will be the icing on the cake. Keep on keeping on.

Well, 4 rows are sewn together now. I had two of everything so I layed out one of the sets in the middle of the design wall and put the matching 9-patches next to each other. I then took the OTHER set of 24 corner sections (not the same 24 that were used in the first set) and matched them up with a center block. That way I don't get any duplicates.

I have half of the HST sections almost done, just need to sew the rectangle onto them. These are made up of half of the first set and half the second set of 24 different ones.

I really hope I can get these 24 blocks done over the weekend. I am SO getting tired of working on this that the thought of doing the hearts is getting less and less attractive!

It's looking SOOOOOOOOOOOO good. Don't give up. I know you won't, so why am I even saying anything? - just want to encourage you. It must really get boring to make the same block over and over when you can't do it assembly line style because you're doing it scrappy. At least your Accucut Go made it easy to do the cutting part. You'll probably think twice before you put that many scrappy HSTs in 1 quilt again! LOL
