You are so correct. Ok folks- I've now got my mission lined up.

To answer a question on the fabric, yes it is a Jinny Beyer fabric. The block is a modified Job's Troubles.

Thank you to all for your comments. Thank you Feline Fanatic for your product recommendation.

If I was using solid or tone on tone fabrics, I would be able to paper piece. When using a print like I have done, I have to fussy cut identical motifs from the fabric and have them match up in the finished block. So cutting takes a very long time.

But the good news is that I'm relatively young and have a good long time ahead of me to make a spectacular quilt
(God willing).
