It is an amazing quilt. Great idea to make the oversize block for the backing. I'll look for the instructions. Thanks

Oh Wow, I see my quilt is enjoying a revival, sorry for the delay in posting a reply to all your lovely comments, but I haven't received a notification that new replies have been posted!

Thank you all so much, I LOVE looking at all the different fabrics in this one, so many of you say 'I Love the colours' when there is such a mix of 'everything' together! It really is simply the contrast between darks and lights that makes this work so well, make sure of this right from the beginning when you put the four patches and the HST's together and when you come to put the quilt together it will shine! It doesn't matter what the colour is or whether they are mediums or darks, as long as you team them with a fabric that has a stark contrast, no blending allowed LOL!!
