Four patch frenzy....

This quilt top was a pain in the hiney, let me tell you.  Even though the gingham edges are on the straight of grain, I think that gingham is a looser weave than I had expected.  Then fussy cutting the cute IKEA car fabric for the center blocks had to be on the bias..wiggle, wobble...annoyance...sigh...but, the top is done.  Now I have two tops done from the 54 four patches from the 108  yellow pre-cut squares....ha ha...This quilt uses 12 and the last quilt used 24...so I now have....54 minus 36, is I think 18 left....whew...not tonight....

Isn't this IKEA fabric cute... I already basted 4 patch number uno...and put this on the back.
I am a little tiny bit on the crabby side...just sharing...could use a bit of sugar..but I hid what I have and now I cannot find it.....Wish I could blame that on the concussion.  Wish I could blame something on the concussion!!

P.S...So I am no math genius.....There are 22 blocks left.....hmmmm
