I like the first black....for some reason, to me, the dragon sort of blends onto the red...

Here is the first stage. I cut the background to just over 18" X 24". I put two layers of cotton batting under only the dragon part of the print.

This is the start

Wow! I really like your idea and work on the large dragon block! I especially like the black swirl print you went with. Kinda of adds to the mystical of the dragon! Awesome work!
Have you found block ideas to go around it yet?

I got a present from my MoM (cutie) paper piecing Lantern called Patio lights. So with my little guy in tow, We whent to Jo-Anns. Picked up just about all of the fabric I could find with an orental theme. I really like the one at the bottom W/ the lotus blossoms. There is also a few with gold metalic print thruout to tie them in to each other, and I had to get the print W/ the Kongie letters on it (just have to dig out My Konjie book to find out just what they mean... Wouldn't whant some joker over there putting something that someone might just know how to read it say Hay Ray do you know what this means ...
I did put some FM work on the edges. Made it look kind of like flames (I hope)

This is the black thread and double cotton batting under
