QE, what a lovely idea. I can almost smell the pine scent!

And I'll be here to cheer you on, as you both proceed .... Don't worry, I have lots of UFOs and PhDs that are sitting and saying "what about me?" and will get back to them too!

Proves the maxim the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Either of your colors look good; the green (IMHO) looks Great.

Awwww thanks JeanieG ... *blush* I just wish they would show you their true colours! The photos have changed them so. What do you think for the cornerstone colours? And further to the setting triangles? I am really pleased with how they are looking. And hope to make some more good progress this weekend, too!

Cut a few of those tiny squares and just tack them up with your blocks and look at it a few days. I often have stuff on my display board a while and change them around to see what I think looks good.

Absolutely OK, I really don't know what I would do without my design wall!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have the big one 10x7-1/2 mounted on the wall ... plus those three portable offcuts that you saw in my grouping ... plus some minis that are easy to work with, for single blocks (used one to photo my BCS Mystery one.

A minor milestone here for me. I have the first 25 done and into EQ7. Not only that but have rotary cut or PP templates ready for the next 50. Yeah![ATTACH=CONFIG]357409[/ATTACH]
