I'm doing a trip around the world format, just like Jane did. I took the large diagram that Klue posted for us at the beginning, and printed it out, then coloured it in with coloured pencils. I assigned a particular batik to each of the colours I had used in the diagram. I had quite a few more batiks than I needed for the TRTW design, so I am using them in the triangles. I have decided not to use batiks for the outside edge triangles, I am going to use my muslin instead, so that I can do some nice quilting in them. Jane's quilt allows for a half inch sashing, so that I what I am going to do. I originally thought I would prefere a wider sashing, possibly 1 inch, or 1.5 inches, but nearly did my head in, trying to work out what to do about the triangles. The software probably would have worked it out, but I had just paid out for the rulers, so gave in and settled for the half inch sashing.
