I found one block recently, but otherwise I don\u2019t actually know exactly where the blocks are hiding. I crawled up in the far reaches of my fabric closet to see if I could find them and they weren\u2019t where I thought. I am sort of mystified as to where they could be. I haven\u2019t even found a picture of all the blocks.

After a brief burst of inspiration, I am stalled on this again. As one of my oldest (I am pretty sure) UFOs, I put it on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2018\/04\/whats-your-oldest-ufo\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">my blog<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/artquiltmaker\/status\/987744235699879942\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">out into the Twitterverse<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ddrquilter\/status\/987747460075458560\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Diane suggested that I not consider this as a self portrait<\/a>.
