A new project in process

Hello, everyone.  There is a new project underway around here.  I think it's going to be a lap quilt. The pattern is Building Blocks, from Fat Quarter Shop. It's a charm square pattern.

Blocks have been made, and some were "un-sewn" and then sewn again. (Backwards blocks don't work with some patterns.) They were first laid out on the floor, but the automated vacuum was patrolling the house, so they got moved to the guest room. This is when it became apparent that some blocks had been assembled backwards. After that was straightened out, and various changes were finished, they got their placement codes pinned in place.

The placement codes are the standard matrix space labels I learned in business math classes in college.

A1 is at the top left. The bottom right is H7.

I did one extra row of blocks, the pattern only called for a 7x7 square and I thought it should be more of a rectangle.
