Getting tired of hsts

So I was looking through patterns bought in my file and came across this:
Sqiggy Quilt it was called and all these pinwheel type blocks make up the quilt. Blocks are 12 1/2" unfinished and take 8 hsts.





But what I have been trying to make hsts for is this, the depression block. It takes 16 (twice as many as above)....heaven help me.





So the laziness just kicked in because if I used 2 of each color way in the blocks I think I would be done making hsts and ready to piece. Worst case senerio is some quilts would have 3 of some of the colors. So quilters in blog land, what should I be doing next???? A: Making 4 more colorways for depression blocks? Or B: get right to the fun of piecing 210 blocks and getting a move on it???? HELP!!!!

And because I was bored, I drew this out in EQ and thought that maybe this would be a fun project in some colorway- not red as drawn as almost all my reds were used in simply squares and I'm not allowed to buy more :P





My next post will be my 100th lol. I'll have to think of a giveaway and post that next.....but maybe tomorrow or Monday- so watch this blog.
