Thanks Emma--not all the scraps are CW, but many follow those color lines. Like all scrap quilts, the use of light and dark values in background and points of stars are important as well as those values in the checkerboard squares. I see a strong diagonal line going up from bottom to top across the quilt. Noting this I will try to keep the darkest squares in the center of the checkerboards. Had it not been for the EQ rendition I wouldn't have foreseen this.
