Bea utiful! I made a tote bag using that pattern in the first layout. I thought it was going to be hard, but it was not too bad! Yours is gorgeous.

Going to be great, jewel box is one of my favorite patterns.

Nice job! Like the second one. Hour glass Looks like big bow ties looking sideways.

Yes, I used a one sided iron-on interfacing the lightest one I could find.

That is such an interesting block design. I have always loved the Jewel Box pattern. For the very first time, when looking at your WIP, I can see how this block is formed. Thank you so much.

Either or both are working into great quilts, but I like the first one and I just may put that pattern on my to-do list.

Both layouts are great. I'm leaning more toward the second one since it's made from ties the columns could be thought of as neckties and the hourglass could be bow ties. Just my thoughts.
