I like what you've done, the blocks are dramatic and beautiful.

Your CW is gorgeous. About 30 yrs ago I made one also. They are fun but very time consuming. I made mine into a pillow and later gave it to my daughter because the colors matched her decor. Her dog rather liked that pillow and sad to say it isn't around anymore so I have no proof that I actually made one. Every once in a while I get the urge to make another, I think I'll put it on that bucket list!

here's what I have so far:

question: should I just sew the squares down flat? Or put black in the middle to keep it like a border? Or should I put a different colour in there? I'm not sure if I'm going to do more blocks. These take a while!!!! It only measures 24 x 24 right now, feels like it should be bigger!

The dark fabric really makes it pop.
