    I really like, no LOVE, this! I would say don't rip it. Beautiful blocks. Where are the patterns, or did you design them?

    I just pulled out all the finished blocks for my BOM, and I discovered that I have sewed half of my connecting blocks together in mirror image Now I have to decide - redesign the quilt, or do a *lot* of ripping. Help! please look below, and tell me which you prefer. The blue/red block in the upper row is reversed in the 2 pictures. Do you like the symmetrical alternating light/dark (pic 1), or the all dark (pic 2) around the middle block?

    The pattern is called Dancing with the Stars. It's a block of the month - this one started in Feb, but it seems that this location is starting again this October http://www.stitchinheaven.com/stitch...rams.asp#dance I'm not sure if you can buy the patterns, but if you did some searching you could probably find out.

    A lot of quilt stores seem to have it as a BOM, so you might want to check with your local store or your favourite on-line store for it.

    What a productive afternoon. I have worked on the quilt with a 9/13 deadline today (108"x108" - huge) and it is now ready to hand stitch the self binding. If the quilt police knew how long I have worked on this quilt (4 years) and saw how many mistakes I have made along the way (first quilt-big big learning curve) - they would put me away for life!

    I'm going to work on hand sewing the binding to a baby quilt I'm working on. Hopefully get started on a T-shirt quilt for my nephew. Never made one, so a little intimidated with cutting up the shirts.

    I'm finishing a quilt for my DGD - made from dresses I made for her when she was 5 and 6. I just have the binding to finish, and then I'll post a pic. I just finished embroidering the 'label' on the binding. When I finish here on the Board, I'll duck back into my cave and finish.
