I've got the same book, I like your results. I think I've bitten of more than I can chew though, mine has 17 different colors and I'm only part way done with the block. This is not as quick and easy as they say. Though I must admit that once I had my pretty 18" blocks cut to start I didn't want to cut any more.LOL. My friends husband threatened to come other with his scissor to get me started. They are both quilters too.
