Wow! You are doing a great job. Wonderful blocks.
LOL! 
I'll try to keep them in line!
Here are some progress pics! Yes, already...

This is Teriamn's fabric. A very simple block but I didn't want to chop up the football players too much.

Joanelizabay, I hope this is anything at all like what you had in mind! I put your fish back in the ocean.
SO. MUCH. FUN!

Just checking in and trying to catch up 
Got back from Florida and now just waiting for all the fabric to arrive. Love making these blocks and seeing all the mix of fabrics.

I love shoo fly... Hope you like this, Billi.
I can see these are going to consume me. I'm having too much fun. Hope everybody else's fabric can be shipped soon so we can all play.
Hey, these fabrics are all so much nicer and even more gorgeous in person than they looked in the photos!

What kind of cutter do you have? What size circle does your cutter make? I need 4 or 4.5 inch, the 3.5 I have is just too small

Billi, your strips are so wide that you could cut them into 7 6" squares each. If you wanted to slice them lengthwise, this is a really cute pattern for strips.... with a square in the center for a fussy cut character or something:

I have a bunch of novelty strips that I'm going to use to make an I Spy quilt with this pattern. I love it.

Billi smart to get ahead instead of running behind like I usually am. I do have the accuqqilt go but the circle maker I use the most is a ruler with multiple markings. You mark half, swing the ruler around and Mark other half. Will check out what size the Go circles are

the go big has a either a 4 or 4.5 die but it won't fit in my cutter I'm having a difficult time justifying $500 for 56 perfect circles.
