    Patty - Yes, the first one is a double Irish Chain. The last one is a stack-n-whack 9-patch, but somewhere along the line I messed up the order of the fabrics, so I just placed them where I thought they looked good.

    Loretta, I like to use the 80/20 batting that you can get at Jo-Anns for all of my quilts. It just doesn't feel like a snuggly quilt if I use the Poly batting. I like the feeling of a heavy comforter when I'm wrapping up with it. The poly batting feels too light weight for me.

    All of them look great. The puzzle one looks like it was tough. Keep up the good work.

    Mgrhs, I don't know what the name of the block is called. I know I picked it out of a book that was at the library, if I get a chance I'll go look it up.

    Stained Glass Diamond Quilt I just finished for my Daughter, belated Christmas Gift. The stitches that look white are actually a hot pink, along with the single tulip in the center.

    Thank you. Took a while to do, has 25 pieces to each block. I mottled some of the fabric myself from solids that I had (used the bleach in a spray bottle method) The books instructions had a misprint in the size of the block (before squaring it up to add the last four corners) was very mind boggling. I finally figured it out, but the finished size turned out right.
