And the next UFO to be worked on is...........
........Brown Kaleidoscope!
Wow......As I pull this package out of my stash of UFO's, I see the label where I started piecing these blocks in 1995! That is 16 years ago. I would say that this is a really old UFO. I had only been quilting for about 3 years when I started this project.Now for my questions. 1-Do I still like Kaleidoscope blocks? Yes. 2- Do I still like the colors that I was piecing the blocks with? Yes, and I already have 20 blocks completed and more pieces that could be made into additional blocks. 3- So do I want to keep this project and complete it, trash it, or give it away? I think I will keep it and complete it.
Now let's put some of these blocks on the design wall and see what I've got. Hummmmm. One thing I love about kaleidoscope blocks is when you squint your eyes you can see circles in the quilt. Kinda neat. I have 20 of the blocks up on the design wall. Now to decide if I stop here or piece some more blocks.
Now to see how much of these fabrics I have left and decide on the number of blocks and the border layouts.
Happy Quilting,
Shelia

I do like quilts with a secondary design. Yours definitely has it.
If you leave it at 16 blocks then you'd have a nice wallhanging. (I can imagine it with an appliqued spray of flowers, but that ambition might consign it to the UFO pile for another 16 years....)
