very nice. I'm sure you will get it done on time. Just don't do anything else but the quilt. :lol:

Get off the computer and start sewing girl. You have a job ahead for you. She will treasure it for sure.

I'm thinking if it were me, I'd be telling myself,"of course, I could make every other a 12" block and then do a block of 4 6"ers then a 12" and alternate." LOL Not that I'm a defeatist, but just the stress of thinking about that many pieces in that few months would set off a fibro flare for me. Or I'd be thinking how it would make a nice quilt for their first anniversary. LOL.
I do love your block. The colors are wonderful! Good luck and good speed with your project. May it bring you joy!

Oh my is that a nice block. I am on a similar schedule as you except for my oldest son who is getting married Feb. 2011. I put my blocks on steroids though(12 inches finnished) and not Dresden Plate. I am also adding some setting blocks, sashing and a liberal border. It will be enough for me to get that Cal King done by then. Only 36 blocks to go but then they must obviously be much bigger then yours. Besure to post when you are done. It will be a very pretty quilt!
