I have also worked up the blocks for the other quiltalong stay tuned........
just noticed the colors are washed out in the pic, the setting blocks are more tan...

Your quilt top is absolutely beautiful! You did a wonderful job!
I have some ideas for quilting it on this post -

I started by quilting through the squares in the alternating blocks, with a walking foot, making large X's across the quilt. That stabilized the whole thing, and made the rest so much easier to quilt. It was the first really big quilt (105" square) that I free motion quilted on my DSM. Good luck with yours!
