FINISHED!!!! Last night I put the final stitch in the last circle! There are 297. I don't know how I came up with that number but this morning as I pulled out the tin to take the photo I saw 6 on the floor. When I counted them I put them into stacks of ten and these six were neatly stacked so...did I count them and dropped them as I put them in the tin or did they not get counted??? I think they are counted. I hope. And down at the bottom of the finished there were four circles that had no backs, just orphan circles. So, am I really finished? Yes.
Being math challenged I tried to figure how big this could be...these blocks will finish at 3.5 inches so what's the multiple of 297 (or 303?) I'm going to have to just lay them out and see how big it gets. Bedoin tent, indeed.
But, I am finished with them!!
You've been pretty busy finishing this up. Such a great feeling when a long term project is finished.
ReplyDeletedo you want a rectangle shape? 15 x 20 is 300 or 16 x 18 is 288...or square? 17 x 17 is 289....18 x 18 is 324 so you'd need more . . .maybe not
ReplyDeleteWell done to you for finishing and to Susan for calculating
ReplyDeleteGreat job getting them done.
ReplyDeleteNice to have Susan a world away to help you with the math...
