Lots of work - tell him filling a bobbin is easier than sewing all those small postage stamp pieces!

I guess he could always use some different scraps. I think he just keeps using the same ones over and over in each of his tops. But, who can tell? He cracks me up the way he sits and sorts them to make sure he doesn't get the same two close to each other. Picky picky picky!! hehehehe!

It makes me tired to think of counting these squares- Congratulations to him on a job well done, and to you for your bobbin filling!

Has he named the quilt? I think "Confetti" would be fitting!
