Keep working on it. It will be worth every minute of every day that you put into this project. I have projects that took me years to complete and I am so glad I kept working until I finished each one.

Your clam shell analogy was funny....sorry about that. :)
Yes, yes, yes you will finish. If my math skills serve me you only have 5 more days of working on your units until you are done! Truly beautiful, intricate quilts don't fly together. I know it will be something you cherish your entire life. Put the long lens on your expectations and you will be pleasantly surprised when, VOILA! You are finished.
