IT took me a while to figure out the br, tr etc. too. LOL. I don't think there are any dumb questions. I love how everyone is doing different colors and things. This is so much fun.

My DJ software arrived and I have been playing. I am thinking of making the blocks 5" finished. This brings the quilt to 90.5 X 90.5 inches rather than the 84" by 84" size when the 4.5" block is used. Is anyone else increasing their quilt size? If so, how are you accomplishing that?
Also, I love that Chocolate DJ in the gallery of DJ's on this Quilt Board. I've heard comments that Kona solids are a bit of a thicker fabric that the regular quilting fabric. Does anyone have an a suggestion for a good solid fabric I could use for the chocolate areas? I don't have experience with buying solid fabrics.
Thanks all! I am looking forward to being with you in the coming year!

Yes, you can. Just be patient and do one at a time. Read all the hints here and on "thatquilt.com". Have fun!
