dunster--that is funny you comment on my design wall "neatness". That was very much planned. I wanted to make sure the blocks were placed neatly in as straight as possible alignment so when I viewed it from a distance, it would look as little "wonky" as possible. The great benefit to this is twofold, one a neatly laid out quilt, but two, an excellent work out. I had to use my step stool to reach the top several rows and then there was all the crowching to place the bottom few rows. I only placed one or two blocks at a time so I wouldn't get them out of color order so I got an excellent morning workout. I have very sore muscles in my legs today to remind me. This is one of the few times I think I achieved exercise while enjoying my hobby. Too bad our machines aren't hooked up to a spin wheel!!
