Perpendicular Ovals - Piecing Progres

Sorting out where the blocks where going to go was.... interesting. My bedroom floor was just about big enough - I couldn't walk around the edges (That definitely put a stop to unnecessary fiddling)

So now that part is done its time to get on with sewing the sections together. I'm going to piece it in small segments of 4x4 (or 3x4 at the end) and then sew those together, I think that makes the most sense (see below).

As you can see from the picture above the size of the quilt has changed (I did say that might happen!). When I was laying everything out on my floor I realized that the original size was huge - there wasn't actually space to do it! Seeing all the pieces in place next to my double bed just demonstrated how unnecessarily big it would be, so I cut 2 rows from the bottom and made it a square 77 inch top.
