the large sashing strip is my idea... not sure yet whether I'll use it or not. I have a feeling it's going to be a VERY LARGE baby quilt... these aren't even half of the bow tie blocks. Luckily, I was able to find the pale blue background fabric ( 2 yards!) in my stash.
I may end up adding more blocks to make it wider... and I may use one of the 1/2 yard cuts from the kit for the wide sashing. What I'm thinking is that I'll do two or maybe three rows of the bow ties then a sashing row - and do three or four sets of the bow tie rows... we'll have to see how many blocks I have when I finish making them. I still have more of the focus fabrics so I can make more of the bow ties if I choose to. We'll see.
Anyway, this has turned out to be more than just a quick quilt - certainly not a quilt in a day, which I was kind of hoping for. It'll be worth it.
Nap time already... getting a headache from not enough sleep and too cold of weather outside.
