Lovely! Such a wonderful honey color, it reminds me of honeycomb. Looking forward to more pics, too!

Such an ugly duckling fabric, but a swan in the finished product!

I am glad I am not the only one that thinks the fabric on its own isn't very pleasant. LOL

Tonight is my last night to work this week, so I will have 4 or 5 days off. (slow time of year REALLY hard on paycheck) So I should finish sewing all the blocks and will be ready for help on arranging *hint hint* :)

I have 2/3 of the blocks done. Might have to recut one cuz I am missing a triangle. I think it was about 6 pounds, black, four legs, and fluffy.

Thanks again for looking! There will be more. This is really an exciting project. I was so worried I wouldn't be able to cut correctly, but I just jumped in and went with it. I hope everyone else worried about starting a project will do the same. It's only fabric, no one is bleeding or dying if you make a mistake.

I cut my first set of 6 strips last night, and today started cutting some triangles. 9 hexagons cut (not sewn) so far...feels like progress!

I'm excited! Trying to remember to take pictures along the way.

LOL I know how you feel, I feel like a little kid! Is that silly? Is there something wrong with me to get so excited over a quilting project?

NO! because I AM A QUILTER! lmao. Say it loud and say it proud!
