Hi Ladies - thanks for the responses to the question I had about the surprise quilt I need to make (9 answers so far!). The feedback is good - keep it coming! so I am thinking that my blocks should be scrappy so that each has its own personality. I do like that bluey teal color so although the color and patterns can be random, it could be cool to sneak in that color somehow. I think that if I have all the blocks ready by end of May, I can have this completed by end of June which should be ok. I really appreciate the help on this project!
