Laurafet - looking forward to seeing your blocks and you joining in this fun. Teen - thanks for the counsel on the PP chart. I will be sure to play around with enlarging it before I start it again. You must be a very good counselor, because you've given me good advice! Macybaby - I too vote for the blue on your inner quilt, which is going to be stunning. I love looking at your blocks and marvel that we are making the same quilt - yours has such a different feel to it and it's fun to see it coming together. Anael - your quilt too is going to be just gorgeous. What a fun, interesting board this is to follow!

Yea, laurafet!!! That would be awesome to sew along with you. Be sure to share, too!
Macybaby....I vote the blue, too... This is going to an incredible quilt.
Donna...thanks!!
I'm off to start my day....some sewing....some organizing for trip. It's super windy outside with the Santa Ana's kicking up so staying inside today... Have a wonderful day!

you are getting there Teen! I'm looking forward to seeing your blocks all together as I know it's going to look very different from mine. That is one thing I love about quilt patterns, you can get so much variation.
I've got the first corner sewn on. The hard part was figuring out what to cut off so the center would meet at the middle of the sashing on the ends. Turns out I'm only needing a small corner for the triangles, so I'll be using up scraps and not cutting up any other blocks. I'm not cutting enough off the others to use in the corners though.
After I get it together, I'm considering adding a row of blocks top and bottom, but I'll have to use a different fabric for the sashing as I'll be out of the light blue. At least I am really using up my batiks!
