Progress with Dizzy – but with progress comes more figuring when you are not working with a set pattern
this is what I have so far. The 4 x 5 rows of blocks are sewed together. The other blocks are just sitting there hanging out until I figure out what to do with them ![]()

The blocks that are sewed together right now are trimmed down to 10 1/4 inches as my piecing was not accurate as I thought and I had to trim them to get them even. The blocks not sewed are not trimmed yet. So right now the inside blocks measure about 39 x 49 inches.
I’m not sure if I am cutting the rest of these blocks down a little bit, leaving them this size and make borders to fit or what. The next step is square some of these up with white (not black because I have very little of it in the stash but I do have a whole bolt of white) in the corners and see what I have. Some spacers might need to be put in there to make it work on the sides and that is where the indecision comes into play right now. On point or just add the blocks to what I have and make it just plain rows of blocks straight – same as what is there now just larger of course. Of course I could always applique all of these blocks down in some arrangement and use them all up at the size they are now! Add a big white border and scatter
We will see, I am quitting now with it for the afternoon and will think about it this evening and maybe get back to it tomorrow. I have the black circles done for Joseph’s Coat so I will be hand stitching the circles onto the quilt tonight while I give this one some thought.
