I got 200 CW type fabrics for the Dear Jane block party but decided that I really didn't have that much interest in doing it so I looked around for things to use them in.
I figure that I can get 3 quilts out of them in combinaton with the 15 yards of Kona Cotton in ivory that I got. This one will take about 5 yards of the ivory and I have selected 40 fabrics for it so far. That's way more than enough for the blocks but I'll do a heart out of each fabric for the border and the center hearts.

First block done. :-D Glad I did one whole block first because I need to adjust the seam allowance one more tick over. It was just a smidgen smaller than 9 1/4" so I had to block and starch it.
I got the Triangle Magic program from Quilt-Pro systems and printed out a sheet for 1 1/4" HSTs. That turned out pretty good and that's a good thing because I need to make 384 of them.
