I figured that I should keep track of how many swap blocks I use up this year. I am not brave enough to count how many blocks I currently have but I will count them as I use them. I have so many of them and it is such as waste to not be using them. I started working on a top early this morning. My 6 week old daughter ate at 3am and I couldn't go back to sleep, I tried, so what better thing to do then sit down at the sewing machine. I have some blue and yellow blocks that I am adding sashing to and then I am I going to add a 2 1/2 inch white border. For the second border I was thinking of using 2 1/2 squares of blue and yellow and alternate them around. Then find a blue and yellow print fabric for the outer border and backing. Going to be lots of little pieces but I think that it will be well worth it in the end. I will take pictures as I go along. My goal for the weekend is to have the first border on and working on the pieced border.
