Awesome start ladies. I'll be watching with interest, have fun!

Brat - I love it! The thin goldish yellow gives it a rich touch and the blue and green two are perfect additions to keep the "nature" feel.
Cognito - I had not thought of by background quite that way but I like the your description.

These are all nice! Jaba, I like that you posted yours as your avatar. Can the others do that? It might help to recognize you all.

Oh, what fun. I am looking forward to keeping up with you guys. Thanks for including us.

Yes they can if they want to change it, it's up to them.

way to guy everyone, round robins are great!

I am going to ponder Jaba's center today. I have the raspberry/green edged quilt now to work with for those not playing. I am thinking of extending that green line out to finish at a point but then I end up with just doing a strip around the quilt in the rest of the areas. What say you to this everyone please feel free to kibitz. I need to figure how to do that too btw. its not a magic act for me its tough work doing angles and math. 45 degree angle cut surely. my row is 6.5 inches adding on so its a bit wider. my other thought was to turn that green line in the opposite direction and have it turn into a square on each side... instead of the center green square that I first thought.. oh ideas ideas...

I'm sure it will be just fine . You can sew here, then I can watch.

Sorry Elisabrat, I'm not part of the group and am totally lost on what you will be doing. But it sure sounds interesting. I will be watching to see which direction you go in.

Pretty first rounds ladies. You all started with some pretty and diverse centers. Should be an exciting journey!

Sounds like you gals will be having fun and I will be watching each round of your journey.
