These are all lovely! I love designs that at first glance appear complex but in reality are fairly simple to do. Definitely going on my ever expanding 'gotta do this' list!

Did you ever change your mind mid-project?

Saw Labyrinth, fell in love, bought pattern for son and daughter-in-law in blues. Well, couldn't find the blues that suited me. Walked into a shop and there was a completed Maywood Wild Rose II in blues and yellows. I do a lot of gardening, my son's favorite color is yellow, and the blues are amazing. It was a kit and on sale, a good sale. So, talk about switching horses in the middle of the stream! But I am definitely going to do the Labyrinth someday. It is too pretty and all of the quilts shown are beautiful.

She asked if it was easy to do. I responded to that. I never mentioned anything about "not buying" the pattern. Yikes..

I agree. I have planned to make one since I saw it. I generally don't buy patterns because for me the math of figuring out the pattern IS the fun part.

Absolutely but have to tell you - it wasn't my idea - it was the original (pattern) directions for a queen :-)

Everyone's quilts look so nice. I have had the pattern for almost a year, but can't seem to find the right color combination. Have bought fabric 2 different times, and I just can't find what the right ones. I think the trick is getting a good contrast.
I am sure I will know it, when I see it.

THe Josephine one is just strips! Looked really simple when she showed us the quilt!

What is there in the pattern if it is not just squares and HSTs? I ordered the pattern and am expecting it to come any day but it would be nice to find out all I can before I try to do one. Thanks!
