Good idea, Mamagus! I have a "tranquilty" already, so I named this one "meadow whispers."

Your quilt is beautiful! Very peaceful, calming fabric/color choices. I have not yet made one in this pattern. Was it difficult?

Not difficult--trying. It required 30 pins per square of squares and 30 pins to get the rows together. I did get tired of it, so I started a log cabin to switch to--requires no pinning. :wink:

It's vital to nail that 1/4" seam. I never would have been able to pull this off with my old machine--where it was marked with a magnet.

LOL!! I will give it a try, then. But, I will go to the store and buy more pins! I shy away from using them for most things. The results are stunning, as you have proven, and make it worth giving it a try. Thanks for the tip.
