Finished the top tonight. Was such a nice project, but the quilting will have to wait as I've two others under the thimble at the moment. I combined the best of what I saw, the two-tone and the double sash. Hope you like it. I don't like the picture and will take another tomorrow when I get 'round to it; it's really quite handsome.

I will take a close up as well today Izy, though I’ve not quilted it yet and the only thing more you might see is the pattern in the fabric. It is graphically a really strong quilt, and for my house rather large to go hanging (I found myself using the words ‘honkin’ big’ to describe the block size). Measuring 53 x 53 (without binding!), it really got big fast for something that’s only four blocks.

It takes about a yard and a half of each color (for the four blocks) Aggi, with careful cutting and depending on if you want the double sash and two colors vs. four. Some of the longer strips can come out of the same length as the shorter, so look at them first when cutting.

Glad you liked it ladies; did you all notice I used orange this time?
