I was so excited I thought I was going to cry! With our many moves the past few years, homeschooling, 2 surgeries, starting my own longarm service and now moving my mother nearby; carving out time for my personal projects has been difficult. I was overwhelmed that I finally got this one done! This pattern works up fast, I just have not had many hours to work on it. I started with an assortment of fat quarters and was not too sure how some of these would work together. Ideally, I would swap out and make a few different blocks for some of these, but on the other hand I think the look is interesting and DONE is always good. Oddly, when you view the quilt from any of the 4 sides... the color layout looks different! I have not decided which view is my favorite.
Here is a pic of the blocks in progress. The close up show the colors a little more accurately. I like the flow of this layout, but it was looking out of balance when I started laying out all the blocks with very different backgrounds.
Now, to decide on a backing fabric, quilting design and thread!
