flimsey finished. I'm calling it "Barely Call It Chilhowie". I don't think I left anything alone, but I like it.
And not too bad having been made from kit fabric. I still have a lot of the white and mottled purple left.
The 9 patches/X-blocks are hinky, but I know how to make them for real if I want the effect again, these were
reformatted when already finished.

And a full block, all the goose border, and some extra pieces if anyone wants them.

Have been thinking about why so many have said "easier this year".
She used to design them queen size and gave components numbers accordingly. I remember on Roll Roll Cotton Boll one week's clue was 700+ 2.5" unfinished 1/2 square triangle blocks. I think the most units we made in one clue here was 98? or something like that. Now they are smallerish and people can upsize them if they want.

And getting the main block finished midway was brilliant and I think why there have been so many finishes.
See you next year
