Definitely glad I did this one, but would NEVER do a quilt of them!!!! lol lol I had intended to make the (yellow) diamonds two tone green like leaves, but none of my greens played well together and w/ your fabrics, the one that did tried to take over the whole block so pale yellow it was. I had to include a close up of that center I was especially proud of it that doesn't happen often for me for an 8 point center. And the other pic was the practice block I still need to finish, but shows the two tone idea I had.
MJP, first block done so now it's time to just play with the fabrics and enjoy them. I love how you kept a large piece of Jaba's fabric intact; sometimes it's difficult to cut large scale prints up. Congrats!
