Happy Birthday Pet! My friend in Arizona loves working with the cork and has amassed quite a collection of it herself, but she has placed herself on no moratoriums.

I moved those purple blocks around for hours yesterday. Usually I would have made several extra blocks instead of just having one extra and I couldn't get smooth transitions or patterns to work with the fabrics I had. Realizing I wasn't going to magically or otherwise obtain perfection, I got a good enough layout and committed myself to it. I'm calling it "Dark Corners". One large diagonal corner of dark, opposite corner smaller amount, with the other colors more or less in diagonal color ways going across the middle/other corners. I like the way the consistent dark half block border units work with this. I don't believe any of the white-on-whites touch each other, there are a couple on diagonals.

Hubby is going to be home this weekend, we haven't set up our plans yet but not much sewing is expected. Still, Purple Quilt top is almost history and the bright wonky project will be starting next.
