I'm not sure whether I like the red or white better.

How big did the block end up?
9.25" it turns out to be! I like the 1st way better. You have to be experienced to do that opposite version. I found it difficult dealing with that bold red background. The scraps would have to be all dark for anything to show up or all light colored and I don't like that idea either. Trying to pull off my framed look with that red background may be a little tricky. But there are some people who would just love it. It sure appears larger than it is. That could be the background color doing that! Of course, the larger the block, the longer it takes, but it covers more area faster so fewer blocks are needed. Think I'll stick to the orignal plan.

:-D :-D :-D ;)
