I've made over a dozen of them, and helped friends pick out fabric for even more. It's a fabulous pattern. Tons of piecing, but you learn a lot. The fabric is really the star in a quilt like this, and the ability to blend them from one to the next.
Yes--that's just what I was going to say. gaigai just did her Lilacs with this pattern. I can't wait to make one.
