Hi Hilary!

Of course you are most welcome to join us! Maybe you could seam up the squares you have already made...for example....seam 4 blocks per width/strip...seam together additional 4 block wide strips...seam as many 4 block widths/strips all together as you can...and then pick up stitches from the top edge and finish the blanket in the seamless 'intarsia' style.
Just a thought!
