Here is the first of 184, 6 inch blocks to make for a queen size quilt. I need to finish it by Feb. 2011 the latest. Dont know if I will make that date or not. Its for my nieces wedding present. Its made from my scraps and I had to cut 2200 pieces 2-1/4 by 2-1/2. Enjoy, Denise

It's gonna be a Beaty when done. Good luck!!!!

Yes it will! I have a project going with 192 blocks but there's no deadline, except being alive :D:D:D
What a wonderful quilt it will be for your niece !!

Baby steps, it will come together and be beautiful.

So so pretty! It will be gorgeous when you finish!

That is beautiful! You can do it!!

It took me 3 days to cut the small pieces. Once I start something I dont like to stop so like the energizer bunny I kept going. My wrist was quite sore when I finally finished. I still have 183 black round pieces to cut and 183, 6 3/4" white squares to cut. But those I'm doing a little at a time so I can do a finished block now and then. Denise

Beautiful!! I woud love to see more!!

Beautiful but you have your work cut out for you.

This is going to be a STUNNING quilt when you get it completed! I've got faith in you that you'll get it done by Feb. 2011!!!

It will be beautiful.

Pretty!
and good luck!
