I have 85 started to add to the 22 I finished already, but it's too much to add one strip at a time to that many at once, so I forced myself to pull a few from the pile to finish up. Here's the first batch. There are different "lights" on these, and "darks"... but it'll all blend in in the end. (she crosses fingers) :roll: (the darker green flowers in the last light strip might not make it into other blocks... I'm thinking it's just too dark--it is the right shade though.)

No blocks are sewed together-I just laid them like this for you to see options. :wink:

Marica--see the pretty sunflowers from your house? :D

Karla, you are doing a WONDERFUL JOB! Those are beautiful. You're crativity is awesome. How big is is going to be? Maybe you said but I might have missed that.

I'm not sure, Jackie--I'm making a LOT of squares (over 100) so I'll have many options. There will be so many designs to choose from. I'll most likely need help deciding on one. :wink:

I wanted to get this and the Black and White Splash well under way before mare stare gets intense... then I can't sew. My stallion gets gelded Wednesday--so I'll miss more days this week. At least I didn't have school work the past two days!! Busy, busy, busy....

that'd be flattering, beachlady... :D besides, ummm, the idea was born from two quilts I saw--one on here (a floral log cabin--Shelley's http://www.quiltingboard.com/posts/list/11584.page ), and one in a round about way from a link on here (it was a watercolor Irish Chain). :wink:
