I figure using 1-3 different background colors, pending how much I will need. I have a few questions? Did we decide on how many blocks we plan to complete in a months time?
In the mean time, I will work on 2 projects I need to get done by my mid month for guild meeting. And hopefully get my BHMQ = Grassy Creek blocks together before I really get into this project.

From answers and comments from the other ladies, I will start the first months blocks next Saturday 13th March and I will post two blocks for each week of the month. So eight blocks in all and then - depending on everyone's thoughts, go from there. If it is felt you would like a week off that is fine and we can have a rest week between the next group of blocks - just first few tentative steps and certainly no pressure. I am happy to follow with all your ideas ! Please post photos of the blocks when you have made them, we would to see them !

I opted to go with the digital version of the book for now and I’m hoping it will work for me! I don’t have a fabric color theme or plan! I figure this will just be some me time in the evenings after teaching all day and a quick break from fostering two new additions to our house. I am excited to start and see all the blocks!
