    When I finish all the blocks for the size I want, then I will switch them around on the board and sew it in rows, and then sew the rows together. This way there will be no need for set-ins. To finish the top and bottom, I will just put in black diamonds on each row and then cut across after sewing and then it will really pop out. I might put black on the side too, but only an inch or so.

    Look at this set up. I turned the dark diamonds up and down and the light ones across, compared to the ones on the right of alternating.

    I can't decide now lol

    Here is another way with the light going up and down and the dark going across....which one do you like the best. There are three choices.
