You should think about giving us a tutorial... at least on how to make one with out going crazy LOL Hence the name
"what was I thinking" right?
Indeed. All I've made so far have some variation of the title "What Was I Thinking?". It's a lot easier than it looks. You make it in strips as opposed to quadrants and unsewing and resewing to stagger rows. Cutting is a breeze...thanks to my June Tailor Shape Cuts ruler. You don't use more than about a third of a yard for this size. This one took me about two weeks of working at it when I had time; I'd say about 40 hours in all, not including quilting and binding.
Thanks for all the compliments. I'll let you know how it does (I don't have high hopes for it in the show, but I like it). Happy Easter everyone!!

It's a beautiful quilt! Is this the one that is posted on the yahoo groups postage stamp swaps? I just got the blocks back from my first postage stamp swap. Started sorting them to work on a Bonnie Hunter pattern!
