    Anne, love the fabric in Lightening-really does look like it's streaking across the sky.

    Those red & white blocks are so striking. I always wanted to do a 2 color quilt; let me add that to my list.

    Looking through the blocks for inspiration and ideas for lightening 'cause I do not like what I have done...and now have some new ideas that might work better. You all have very nice blocks.!!

    Amazing lightening fabric with horses jumping around in a frenzy!
    You have some of the best stories,
    QNSue to go along with your blocks.
    I keep nudging you ... pleeeeeeeeeease get these stories written down!

    Keep them both ... and make your decision when you decide on the block placements.

    I don't like the lightning block so I made a sub. It's called Shadow Rays and the pattern is from the Quilter's Cache.[ATTACH=CONFIG]352636[/ATTACH]

    I am seeing the quilters cache blocks a whole new way, Anael, and loving your choice of colors that make the block lovely and pop!!! Love that combination of blue; that would look great on a quilt top, repeating itself. IF I have not down loaded the pattern, I will go back and correct my error and down load it. Good job.

    Great substitute block! The different blues and white are good combination.
