Plodding along - but getting results!

I just couldn't resist laying these blocks out on the floor before I put them away.  Didn't take the time to randomize the layout, but it's starting to look like a real quilt!  It won't be so exactly checkerboard once the white-centered squares are added in.  But it's BIG.  Can I really quilt this on my home machine?  I think if I just do straight lines, I can...

I finished the next group of 15 blocks last night, bringing the total to 60.  My partner has finished her top and back and sent it out - to Everett, ironically - to be quilted.  But it's not a race!  I hope I get done by April, though.
