My Pea Brain Won't Let Me Make Giant Blocks!

Today I decided to piece the backing for this double four-patch. I thought I'd use the same fabric (blue denim & white muslin) as the front and just make a gigantic double four-patch for the back. Well, mistake number one - I was also keeping one eye on the Olympic Women's Hockey final - USA and Canada - while doing it. (USA lost.) I just finally finished it and realized that for the 4th time since starting it I sewed it together wrong and I have to rip out a HUGE seam now to rearrange it. AGAIN! I hope the look on my face wasn't as sour as the faces of the USA team getting their silver medals instead of gold. I was so disappointed in how badly they behaved while standing up there. I know they worked very hard and really wanted the gold but only the last two girls had the fortitude to smile when handed the medals. The bronze medal winners - the Swiss - had smiles and were very gracious about their 3rd place award but the USA girls acted like spoiled brats.
