It's a swap

My swap partners are way ahead of me. They have buckets of little tiny pieces cut for our version of circa 1880 quilt. And they are sewing them together. One of our partners has already delivered 3 months of blocks.
I have been working on good fortune mystery quilt and I have let it slide.
Linda's squares...

Sue's blocks...

I decided to do mine with strip piecing. It seemed like I cut and cut and cut........
and sewed and sewed and sewed .......
and there were 10. I need 30 every month for the swap. Hmm, this is going to take some time. I did some calculating, and I will need 85 -1/12 inch strips of light - that might be why I didn't get very far. I was just cutting a few of every size. I need to get serious about what I will need.
