So Far, So Good
I have to say I'm pleased with how this ombre fabric worked. Made selecting fabrics so much easier (and faster).
I had a problem with the center square by not doubling checking my math before cutting strips but happy with the "mistake". The pinwheel center was supposed to be one big pinwheel but I had cut up all the pink fabric into 2" strips so didn't leave enough to make a bigger pinwheel. In hindsight, though, I wish I would have pieced a tiny maroon square into the dead-center of that block.
I think I'm going to add about a 3" border in the maroon and bind in the same color. Not sure what I'm going to put on the back yet.
At least I can say I'll bust about 2 yards of fabric from my stash when done.
