This looks like a great resource especially, if one wants to make an atypical BurgSur quilt.
As I'm using scraps of reds I have been figuring out how much I will need for each block. My plan is to use one "light" red for the circle and one "dark" red for the chains within the block. My connecting chains will be a scrappy "dark" red and outer checker border a combination of "dark" and "light" reds. Not sure what I will use for an outer border and need to find background fabric yet as well.
