I saw yours, I really wish I did it with all pattern blocks instead of the white, I just followed the missouri star quilt co tutorial online so I did what they say. I laid out all my blocks too before I sewed them together to see which way I preferred the colours and it looked much better have it graduating in big blocks of colour.
I wish I'd know what a pain it is to line up seams, I'd have probably picked something else for my first time. This was meant to be a single bed size but I put together one charm pack and was over the seams so decided to make it a throw with a thick border, added the double border to give it size.
