Movement in Squares #2
Finished the brown version of this pattern after deciding I didn't care for some of the fabrics I chose at the beginning. Of course I made those blocks before deciding that so I now have 7 blocks out of 12 thrown into my orphan block bin. I had my sister's help in deciding which fabrics to switch out and of course I went to my batik shelves to find the ones to switch to. 2 of them are fairly close in pattern though but just enough shade difference maybe you wo't notice.
I was trying to not make the same mistakes I did the 1st time but of course I made new ones instead. I had to rip out one block almost completely as I didn't notice I'd put a couple of the strips on the wrong side. Then when I went to make up the extra sashing using the scraps for the Square in a Square blocks, I flipped the whole entire length to the wrong end so now some of the squares are just above the block with the same fabric and I was being so careful in putting them away from that block. Guess I just wanted to get this bad boy finished and off my design wall but I'm still happy how it came out though. So here it is........ I included the green version for those that might not have seen it before. This is a free pattern out there somewhere as a friend of mine was able to find it and download it.
