Yay! I have finished my squares! I haven't built up a stash yet since I haven't been quilting long. I guess this would be considered very controlled scrappy. 
I am also waiting to see what the finished quilt looks like... I may make more than 12 blocks.

[QUOTE=baronreads;7111856]I can't decide whether to make the triangles super random or at least "coordinated" random. My triangles are true scraps from my MIL fabric I inherited. Most are not anything I'd ever buy. I may wait for the next clue to sew the last seam together, unless Judy wants to weigh in.]

Well, I did decide to redo my blocks and try to get more contrast with the HSTs. I hope these will work, I see 2 that think I will get rid of, the orange and the pink/mauve. I really do need to work on color value. Mine are controlled scrappy as I have a hard time giving up control. LOL

Here's mine. I don't think I've got enough contrast, but I found a small pile of civil war-type scraps I want to use up, plus my DH and I have been in bed for almost 2-1/2 days straight with food poisoning, so ... "it is what it is" ... as they say. I'll make another one later on if these colors turn out to be a flop.

I agree 100% can't take the cold and can't take 90+ heat either....Would love for sping to hang around a bit....
Lv2Sew2011 - I'm with you, this late winter OK is getting is getting to me, too. I have never been so cold as I have been this winter. usually it's unusual for me to keep the blanket on at night, now I have two fleece blankets on me, one is double fleece. let's get to spring and have a real spring, not that 1-2 day thing and jump to summer.
