Love the colors, too, and that you didn't paper piece. As you found out it can be done. I'm always trying to figure out how to quilt this size without detracting from the intricate piecework..
another?

I do like working with smaller pieces. Even when I am doing a large quilt, I usually work with smaller blocks. I keep telling people that it is easier to sew straight for 2" than 8". Really I can't seem to acquire accuracy -- either cutting or stitching. I like to work with blocks that can be sized down for better accuracy. My goal is just to improve over time (and I think that I do). Second nature it ain't... At least not yet.
