The 510 Top

 

My husband refers to my latest project as an adventure in craziness.  Hence the photo above.  😂😂

I had a lot of 2.5 inch squares.  I kept wondering what to do with them and then I saw a video from Lessons Learnt.  The scrapbuster featured on that channel used 6.5 inch blocks and lots and lots of 2.5 inch blocks.  Cowabunga!  

So during the last three weeks, I've been putting this top together:

Here's a better photo:

  

So the top took 480 squares at 2.5 inches and 30 squares at 6.5 inches.  I'm actually really happy I could use so many of the 2.5 scraps.  It also helped that they were already cut and even stored by color.  I only have a small container left!

The one big problem is that all those little scraps create lots of threads and lint.  I need to clean the sewing room again and run the air purifier a lot during the next week.  

Today I'm off to get another cortisone shot in my hand.  The right hand is fine but the left hand gots shots every three months.  It's been painful lately so I'm relieved to get the shot.

Wishing you a safe and happy day!
