Your selection and placement of fabric makes each so individual and enhances the pattern. Absolutely gorgeous, keep up the good work! Please continue to let us see your work.

Feline Fanatic, what size were your strips that you sewed into strip sets? I LOVE this quilt!! Looks very addictive.

the strips are cut 2", the block measures 12 1/2" unfinished once the 8 triangles are sewn together and the corner units put on.

I had 10 different fabrics for each medium, light and dark value. For each block you choose 1 each of medium, light and dark and then a 4th strip of your choosing from any of the values. My little red plastic "value viewer" came in very handy when sorting the fabrics into values. I was shocked that the two bright oranges registered as strong lights through the viewer same with one of the tiger/zebra stripes. But once the blocks started going together they definitely read as lights.

You are right, it is very addictive. I missed my "fix" last night.
