Thank you so much. I did not know it, but YES, my software does allow the outlines to be removed. I did that and it gives it an entirely different look, as you mentioned. I am going to try to add those pictures and delete the first ones. Wish me luck.
i'm so glad i could help. yes, the look is so different. but i was wrong about the 'harlequin' thing. now, i the sashing separates your border diamonds from the blocks. i like option 3 without lines. be sure to post once you finish
