Yes, of course, I would like to see you laying it out; this one is going to be fun. The blocks are going to play with each other.

It's a great looking block -

Well, girls, it is bigger than 12 in.
It is a whole 15 in. :lol: :lol: :lol:
And it takes 20 of these, with a lot of sashing,,
I have not made the sashing strips yet, they also take 9patches in them! :roll: But as soon as i can get 8 squares made, I will stop and make a sashing strip so I can put 2 rows together. :D :D

I love that the Navy is the background color, really makes the pattern show up. I can't wait to see what the sashing is like with 9-patches. Hard to imagine. Great job Ninnie and I hope you feel better today. :D
