    I agree. Organization is the way making sure every piece is in it's proper place. I use scraps of fabrics to number my blocks.

    I use big clips from the dollar store to hold my pieces unless there are too many then I put them in zip locs.

    Also just make sure you go to the link and print out the corrections (which I just did as I love this quilt, too). I'm going to save it in the pattern bag so I know where it is. Thanks for the reminder.

    I saved the pattern when it first came out. (Thanks for the corrections file). I know my son would enjoy it, but to be honest it intimates me. I'd love to see some of your Labyrinth finished quilts.

    Ok, I have ordered fabric to make this quilt and I have printed out the pattern and corrections so one I receive the fabric I can get started.

    I used clothes pins and wrote the piece number on it with a sharpie. Clothespins are cheap and it really helped keep it organized.

    I found that the pattern I used said to place like the picture, but in some pictures it was hard to tell their black from their dark. I had a few pieces upside and, of course, it didn't look right. When I found and printed the corrections, I also found a picture with a better color contrast. That helped a lot. Now that mine is finished, I can't figure out how to quilt it. I'll try to post a picture tomorrow..

    Thanks Audrey - I would love to see a photo of your quilt - I am thinking it needs a all over meandering for quilting myself - but once mine is finished I will ask my longarm quilter what she thinks

    I don't have a pattern for this so was wondering what is the size of this quilt and how much fabric do I need? It doesn't tell in the pdf instructions, just for all the blocks. Can and how would it be made bigger?

    According to the pattern I have the quilt is 84" square and requires 1 2/3 yds white, 2 7/8 yds light color, 2 2/3 yds dark color and 3 1/8 yds black (which includes enough for binding) - each square is 21 3/4" in size -

    That quilt is my next one to start. My DH saw a picture and he wants me to make it for our bed. When I told him it was designed by a guy, he said Well yeah! Like there was no doubt. Lol. I'm using grays, black and white.
