Design Wall Monday

I finally have something on my design wall.  I am in the process of rearranging my sewing room and have been working on that instead of sewing.  This is a Bonnie Blue pattern, The Long Road Home, that several of us Thimbles did as a trade last summer.  I think that I am the only person who hasn't finished it.  It is on my UFO list for the year, and I hope to get it done this month.  I thought that I had all of the blocks sewn together but to my dismay I am short 20 of the pieced blocks.  I wanted to work on them today, however I am having some sort of elbow problem and it is painful to use  a rotary cutter.  (and of course I needed to cut some more of the 1 1/2 x 1 1/2 pieces.  DH came down while I was putting this on the design wall and made several positive comments about it. He said from a distance the little squares looked like marbles.  I have to say after I looked at it from where he was standing I agreed with him.  Wish me luck.

Mine's cut out but that is as far as it goes. It looks so pretty on your design wall.
