Here's the link to how I redesigned mine - I was SO much happier with the results!

The design is called "Newport Beach", found in a Judy Martin book named 'Scraps'. It's the quilt on the cover, in the top right corner. Instead of going with a true shadow design, I used what I had - the solid red. Here's the link in case anyone is interested.

I was able to use the squares I had already cut out (and ripped out a couple of times). I also used the solid red for the shadow part, so I only needed to add the white. I felt really lucky to have found a pattern that could use the original scraps from my awful TurningTwenty!
