If it is off, I certainly can't tell. It turned out great!

Wow. Isn't it amazing how different the blocks can look just by changing the color placement. Great blocks!

It is amazing how different they can be. Thanks for showing us the alternates. I may never have thought to change that way.

Now, I have to work but I really wanna play with fabric and this block some more.

Very fun, thanks for starting this challenge!!
WOW!! Now THAT's what I'm talkin about!

Well, since I have not read or seen any other postings, it looks like everyone has submitted their block?? They all look so great and was wondering if any of you had any preferance as to what pattern we would do next. I have thought of about 3 different ones, but not sure of which one to choose.

How about from the 12" blocks on www.quilterscache.com: Buckeye Beauty, Calico Puzzle, or Next Door Neighbor....all three look pretty easy and would do well with color value variations I think..

You never know how many more we might see before the 6th! I think you should just pick a block for us - that way there is no pressure on us, just you!!! Personally, I want to use the same colors & eventually put together a quilt with all of the blocks. But whatever everyone else decides is fine with me.
