Nice I'm liking the way this is looking can't wait to see more of it :)
Still think you're nuts using that size blocks, but guess the world does need a few nuts as it makes life and quilts more interesting ;)

dvseals, I always figured I was a little cracked, it is good to know that I have confirmation on it.
I am close to getting ready to take more pictures, there is a few more pieces to this one if you want to believe it. I am going to leave the counting to someone else.

So here it is. The next little bit to the current square. If I keep working it should be done before supper tonight. of course it is just after two now so that leaves me lots of time to finish the 15 squares.

I will have to look into buying one since I seem to have a thing for this kind of block. So note to self, buy a clover mini iron.
So I am moving right along and have a chance at still getting it done before supper. The kids came home etc and took up some time, they are all occupied now. and there is only a little left in the block to do.

They are a 7" square, I was in a strange mood when I was picking fabric so who knows what it will all look like when I am done.
There is a quarter in the pictures to show how small we are talking about.
