Welcome to the Quilting Board!

Please recommend how wide I should cut my strips and that's what I will do.
You should be able to get away with a 2 1/4 inch strip, maybe as big as 2 1/2 but that I think is pushing it, so they will be small,
deranged_damsel I love the way you have your blocks layed out!!! Awesome pattern, it is so bright and cheery and colorful :D:D:D
Salmonsweet, I really like the color play of your blocks and lay out too!!! Such a stunning quilt :D:D:D
buffy2, I love the 2 fabric idea!!! I am doing this too :wink: I really like your lay out!!! That is beautiful :D:D:D
I am done sewing the darker fabrics that I have cut, will be starting on the lighter fabric tomorrow Woo Hoo :D:D:D
There's a LQS on the way to retreat, maybe I will look for another fabric there tomorrow.
WOW! thanks everyone for the compliments :oops:
looking back on it now.. I dont think my fabric was the best choice to follow Cutes intructions.
The stripes made hexs that were just TO different and some EXACTLY the same. I couldnt get them to blend.
Im just glad it turned out, that goes to show that ANY quilt, ANY mistakes can be rescued and turn out lovely.
THANK YOU!!!Originally Posted by DeniseB

Hi Another row of blocks completed. This is very exciting. I am loving it. Salmonsweet you blocks are lovely. I am planing on doing a black and white quilt, don't know what design it will be yet. Back to the sewing room blocks are awaiting.
Oooooo I am loving it :D:D:D
Just checking back in - love what I'm seeing!
Salmonsweet - I'm anxiously waiting to see your finished black & cream quilt. I think it's a sharp look.
