RJ I love your blocks. They look really pretty together. Lots of contrast.

Not really good at scrappy...so very controlled pink/red houses and pinwheels!

Chasezzz, I'm the same way! I really like the controlled colors better, guess it is in my comfort zone :) I haven't even picked out fabric yet but I'm printing out the instructions and hopefully will catch up. Life seems to have gotten in the way since we've been home, Wyoming, and I have a customer quilt order that I'm trying to get done. It's not a little quilt, will end up about 105" X 105", it will sure be the limit of my long arm table. I brought home 7 quilts that I sewed together in Florida that need to be quilted also. Might be like last year....get them quilted and take to Florida next October to sew on binding and get them finished:)

More pretty blocks!

Chasezzz: I am doing controlled fabrics for this one also. However, I do like scrappy quilts and I usually make more of them than controlled but I sometimes feel it is easier to have the fabrics preselected so I can just grab, iron, cut, and sew rather than dig through my scraps. :). This is one of those times.

Chasezzz, I know you aren't comfortable with scrappy, that's fine, and I think that is why I tried to give directions for yardage for you and those who want to do a mystery, but don't do scrappy. It's all good and they will all be beautiful in the end.
