    That's what I am working on right now ... there's just a lot of blocks LOL and it takes me at least 45 minutes to do a new layout ... and to top it off, I have my parrot sitting on my head trying to grab them!

    By golly I think I have the layout! It's off kilter because I started in the top left and bottom right at the same time. I noticed that I had a lot of doubles, so I tried to mirror image them as much as possible

    Thoughts?

    It’s going to be a stunning OBW but I did like your arrangement in post #15. Looks like a fun project.

    I too lean toward the #15 post. What a gorgeous quilt this will be.
