This is the one that is in my avatar. I am using 9"x11" pieces of CW fabric, 18 of them so far for the corners of the 9-patch blocks, and 3 purple fabrics for the centers. There are 35 blocks in the quilt pattern, 5 blocks x 7 blocks, but I think I may make it 6 blocks x 8 blocks because the pattern is only 61"x81".

There are two blocks of each fabric and I made sure that there are different purples in each set. I am using all greens for the sashing blocks because they will meet up with the green vines in the border and I want some continuity with the green.

Thanks for coming up with another one for us to watch grow. Love the CW fabrics you are using and like your theory with the green. Keep the pictures coming!
