Klosjes progress

Progress!!! While on the drive, and where time allowed, I worked on my Klosjes. As you can see I have 4 rows almost done. I finally decided to make it 18 by 24, so am going to need 432 individual Klosjes. To date I have 238 completed. I have found there are a couple of duplicates. Oh well!! This is all being made with scraps, as well as. a variety of background fabrics . I have used some of those small pieces I have been saving. It has been a great pick up and go project. I have already used one spool of thread, and I am sewing it all by hand.

That is lovely, but I can't imagine making over 400 of them. What patience you must have. Anxious to see the end product.

Wonderful Mary! Oh I am so impressed! They look fabulous together. My Klosjes are stagnant. It's been a while,partly because it's been so hot... But seeing yours are an inspiration for sure! Thanks, Mary! :)
