I've been bitten by the pattern, as well. Of course, I'll copy you on Rose's quilt. I really do think she will make something for her hubby.
This afternoon, I purchased some fat quarters and am tempted to do something bright and cheerful. I have been playing around with sizes of the finished blocks: 8 inch; 12 inch; 14 inch.
I am always challenged to get to the shortcuts and make the most of the yardage. One of my favorite teachers is Mary Ellen Hopkins :-) Quilting is fun and one of my passions....
Which size blocks do you recommend? Thanks, again.
Piecefully yours,
Kay Susan
