The problem with this type of Block of the Month is you wind up with a display of your quilting prowess (obviously very good in this case) but no unifying theme. I would make thin window frame sashing and use it to display all the techniques you learned. You will look at each of these blocks and remember what you went through to learn how to make it. Surround the quilt with a solid border so as to not detract from your work and put that sucker on a bed some place. tim in san jose
