I started making a larger block with four small blocks from my
Cream Crazy Quilt Throw. I figure if I make these larger blocks maybe it will be easier to keep working on them in larger chunks at a time. At first I went to lay out all 48 to see how to put them together but what I saw was it doesn't really matter they are all really well randomized in the piecing so I can just throw 4 together and it will work...I'll make it work! LOL I forgot what the size was going to be so I had to check back on my blog posts and found that I had decided on 8 blocks by 6 blocks. So I'll need 8 blocks of 4 and then 4 blocks of 2. I might add the blocks of 2 to some 4's to create 4 blocks of 6 which would make it overall into 8 larger sections to work on before piecing those together. Anyway 48 single blocks just feels so overwhelming, which I believe is why it's sat for a few years with just a little work here and there. It feels a little overwhelming to piece these all together too but I think if I can get going it will start to snowball for me. Crossing my fingers that I can keep it up...I kinda see it as a miracle that I even have all 48 pieced in the first place!!! HAHAHA I started in Sept. 2007 finished piecing in June 2009, and now starting to put those together in Aug. 2013 sheesh!!!
this is going to be pretty amazing and now you have started working on it again I am sure you will enjoy the stitching.
