The Rainbow Patchwork Chronicles: Squares Pt. I

So, I've got maybe 200+ squares cut out at the moment, including the 140 I bought online. I got a 100 no dups (well, supposedly... there was one dup, but I'm sure that was just an accident), which had some really pretty squares and two absolutely adorable Beatrix Potter squares (not the dups =P). I have decided I have to collect Beatrix Potter fabrics and make a quilt or something. I also have decided that I have to collect cute illustrated prints (such as the REAL Winnie the Pooh drawings and any fairytale ones that are pretty - hopefully some Arthur Rackham prints are out there somewhere...).

Anyways. The other 40 were batik squares which were sooooooo gorgeous. I think I might have to get more of those. They were just too pretty.

Basically, I've done the math for the skirt, and I need a bit more than 500 squares (originally I thought it was 450-ish, but that was because of an error in teh maths). The last tier will be the purple tier and it will have 200-ish squares, I think. (I can't remember for sure.)

I'm so exciiiiiiiiiiiiiiited!

There is other craft-y news, too, but I think I might save that for later. 0=)
