So colorful.....what size are the blocks? Will this be a wallhanging? Are you doing that blanket stitch by hand? All those different color threads! If by hand, what thread are you using?

The blocks finish at 9 1/2" and yes, it will be a wall hanging - about 35 x 44 when finished. I am doing blanket stitch by hand in all those different colors and using DMC floss for most of it. I used to do counted cross-stitch so have lots of floss.

Yes - I am enjoying doing this! I have a sun room that looks out on my patio with a bird bath and feeders so I can enjoy watching my birds while I stitch
