I have 33 blocks to add to the ones I made earlier and wrote about in March. I can't believe that I forgot to give an update in April, but there you have it. If my math is correct--and it's entirely possible that my math is way off--I have a total of 120 blocks.
I counted them last week as I was packing them up to take with me should we ever go on vacation--it's entirely possible that we may not even though we should have left already! That's a story for another day though. And I don't remember the number anyway.
Of course, a la Mary, I couldn't wait and used a few of those blocks for this project.
But it's all good! That project was meant to represent a window, and one of our boys has a home improvement business that sells and installs windows, among other home improvement jobs.
Because I decided in my last update that I had way too many plaids, I decided to stitch up some solid/neutral circles. I'm still using up some of the plaid circles and squares that were already cut, but as I add to the pile, I'm cutting only from my collection of Kona solids and anything in neutral. I'm hoping that mixing these in with the plaids will calm them down a bit.
And because I figured out how to do this some time ago, I thought I'd show you the same circles in black and white. A b/w cicle quilt would be pretty awesome, don't ya think?
Happy Quilting,

They are coming along fine. It is surprising how quickly the pile can grow, even missing a few along the way.
I liked the plaids, but this way of mixing them with more plains is working very well. Looking great, Mary, even if you can't count!
