I have finally built enough of the postage stamp quilt to realize that I do have enough blocks for a 60 inch by 60 inch quilt. When working with a quilt with lots of seams, it is always best to work on the smaller side because it gets so heavy and unwieldy. However, when confronted with a 60 by 60 quilt on the wall, I realize that there is no point to making a small quilt with lots of pieces. If you're happy, you must be doing something wrong (I think that's a variation of a Ted Lasso quote).
So yes, for a third time I am going to pause the building process and go back to cutting bits and making baby blocks. Will this make me unhappy in the future? Of course. Will it make me happy right now? Certainly! I think I have a new year's resolution in the making.

It looks like the start of a silhouette of the USA.

Instant gratification is better than no gratification at all. Or something like that. These days we need to grab all the happy we can find...
I have been saying this a lot lately, but it is a future you problem to deal with. The right now you is what matters! Ha. That has been my moto since the end of 2024 and I have brought it with into the new year. Future me can hate me, I am fine with that 😂
