thanks lol
i go with this one. It is so easy, there are almost no seams to match up and the finished product is usually very interesting.
I was going to suggest this as well.

I had too many ideas and nothing worked for me. All muddled inside lol. I am looking at the 9 patch now. Thanks so much.

Would love to see a pic of Pieces of Eight! I love clean, uncluttered lines, too and have been thinking of a pattern to make a small table topper. Thanks!
So pieces of eight is just 8 1/2 inch squares in whatever you put them in?
