I found myself saying "oh no, I have three HST's together right in a row, but you know what, it didn't really matter. That's the way I wanted the last row to look on the right side because it balanced the top left with the low contrast blocks. It gradually got darker toward the bottom but only subtilly -- just the way I wanted. So you see you can't go wrong with a quilt like this! ANYONE can do this! Hope you'll try a low contrast/high contrast quilt. You just might like it and it may be your best one ever! Just be sure and post pics if you do one! Thank you, JJean!!

:D :D ;)
