It's a nice pattern for small scraps too. The squares are only 1 3/4" unfinished size. I've used 80 different fabrics so far... 24 for the 9-patch corners, 24 for the HSTs, 24 for the corner sections, 3 purples for the 9-patch centers, and 5 greens for the sashing. Well, plus the ivory. I will be making the hearts out of all the fabrics I have used already and will need to get some yardage for the green strips on the border.

This is all done from a 200 fabric set of CW I got on ebay in 9"x11" cuts. I'm sure I can get another quilt out of them with combining it with the bolt of ivory I have. Been keeping my eye out for patterns to use them in.

Always good to take a picture and look at it.

Thanks for the suggestion. Hadn't thought of that one.

So pretty, I have some that I am tired of but need to finish. I admire your resolve to stick with it. I have at least 16 PIGS. (projects in grocery sacks)

It is so pretty. I wish I had the patience to do one like it because I really like the pattern and ,as you said, it's great to use up small scraps and half-square triangles. Can't wait to see the finished quilt.
