Lots of progress!

Just not much to say about it... 
Here's all 25 of the blocks I think I'll need for it to come out square ( or close enough to it).  Next up will be the white and gray blocks that go in between each scrappy block and the white triangles that will go at the beginning and end of each row.  I know that these don't look like woven ribbons, but I don't care... I just wanted to use up a pile of scraps :)

I have got sooo many 2.5" blocks left.... I'll have to find something to do with them LATER... maybe I can use them for next year's RSC :).  How does a scrappy Irish Chain sound?  I've been thinking about doing a double or triple chain... they would work for that ( just not the RSC which is fine).

I'm staying snug in our house for the next day or so... it's been SNOWING and I HATE the stuff... especially driving in it at the beginning of the season when too many drivers forget that you're supposed to drive different when there's snow.  I heard on the news this morning that there were several accidents in our area... two almost in the exact same spot!... 

Ok, off to do SOMETHING

take care....

    One of the accidents was at the cross street just past us. We heard it... someone impatient trying to pass where it wasn't safe went head on into a truck. I heard the honking and crash... hoping everyone was okay...I passed out on the couch before I saw the tow trucks thanks to stomach flu. It's been a fun day. But your quilt looks great so far!

    Those are great blocks - so perfect for scraps! I was thinking about makibg a scrappy Irish chain quilt, too! I found a tutorial for one - http://www.happyquiltingmelissa.com/2015/06/super-scrappy-single-irish-chain-finish.html
