WACKADOODLE

 No really apparent reason for the name except that I have always been interested in the word.  Does it mean something positive or negative?  Sometimes a 'fanatic' or 'eccentric' pops up as a meaning.  I became sort of a fanatic trying to finish this quilt during the hectic month of December during the holiday season. It was to be my last quilt for 2025, and I wanted to get it done before the new year.  So, I persevered.  There are 25 5-inch blocks each containing 29 pieces for a total of 725 + 8 border pieces contained in a 29 inch square.  Hope that doesn't mean that I'm overly eccentric!

THE STATS:  Wackadoodle, 2025, 29" x 29", Paper pieced, Machine pieced, Machine quilted.

Now, maybe on to something uncomplicated for the month of January.
