You're quilt turned out great. I tried the plus sign quilt with fabric I brought back from Hawaii. It was so busy, it looked like someone "threw up" on it. I think I should have added a few solid plus signs. Oh well, another UFO!

Oh no - there are 1180 squares (actually, 1176 because there are some places that I used a 2x6 block instead of three 2" squares. 5 squares per fabric, so 235 different fabrics. I use more than one fabric per quilt (3 at the least, but I do a lot of scrappy quilts so more like 5-10 per quilt). If I say there is an average of 5 different fabrics per quilt, that would be 47 quilts over the last 8 years. Which is about right.
