Well, I was just bragging on my speedy piecing skills. It's kinda like a long trip when you realize you're making great time, but you're completely lost. My quilt is composed of A and B blocks. A's have dark squares on the corner. B's have light squares. Instead of making 7 more B squares, I made 7 more A's. So now I have:
1. A quilt that will be twice as large, that needs 14 more B blocks.
2. A baby quilt that still needs 7 more B blocks.
3. Another long-term scrap project, because I need another project like I need another hole in my head (to quote my grandmother).
4. A headache-free head, since this easy piecing has helped my headache of 3 days go away!!
Stay tuned to see which is correct. This was not a test. Just a fun piecing morning. This gives me the opportunity to add in some more brightly-colored squares as well. Win/win.

Very glad to hear your headache has abated. All of us have made the same mistake. I once made an entire large log cabin quilt in which all the blocks were pieced incorrectly. Love the colors in your quilt.
No matter what choice wins, it will be a fun quilt!
Don't feel bad. I do this too. happened when I was making a quilt for my grandson. I pieced the 9-patch blocks the wrong way....ended up doubling the size of the quilt. Oh well. He loves it.
