My design has 7" blocks in the center (on point) and then 10" blocks on the outside rows. So..that will be interesting.
I am matching my thread to the applique piece...and I found the best price on Razzle Dazzle at softexpressions.com. I even wanted to add to the order..sent and email and in just a few minutes, they called and viola' it was all taken care of..I got the package in 3 days too..from CA to TN..so I'll buy from them again.
Mad..I'm not using all batiks, but a pretty good mix. I think that several of the blocks have parts that really call out for a pattern of some type.- JMHO..
