    I agree, right from the start :wink:

    Stripes and plaids drive me batty and I am picky about the patterns I choose to use them in :D:D:D

    JenniePenny, your blocks are wonderful! Are you working from a book?

    I love stripes too ... this quilt is one I made using Anita Grossman Soloman's book "Rotary Cutting Revolution" - "XCentric" block. From one striped fabric.
