I'm sure this group will most likely do another Piecing the Past QAL together. When was her next one supposed to start?

Since last week I got two different types of blocks done. I made 4 from one and 3 from the other.
I have 3 more types to go from the Rest and Refreshing pattern. Hopefully I get to post some pictures soon.
Right now I have 59 blocks from the Rest and Refreshing patterns. Does anyone know how many I would need, for a Cal King 115 inches or 120 inches quilt, if I add the sashing and put them on point?
I will probably just add a plain border 6 inches or so.
For some reason I think I might need 61 blocks but then I might be totally off too. I do not mind some extra blocks so I will still make three of each of the remaining blocks I still have to go.

I really struggled with getting the colors I liked for this block but it's done! I do like the soft colors.

So am I the only one lagging? I will keep posting as I am working on this quilt.
I still have to make three more types of blocks, figure out on how to make it into a Cal King 120x120 or slightly smaller, decide on sashing and border fabrics.
I hope some more of you will post to this thread as you are working on your blocks and or quilt.
Did anyone else plan to make a much larger quilt from this pattern?
I hope someone can help me with the size increase and number of blocks needed.
