    This will assist in matching matching the seams when you sew together then angled sets of pieced strips.
    This did not work out right; while I alternated, when I went to sew them together I did not have an even number in each direction. Not sure what I did wrong.

    This fabric was all part of the same group. (Is that called a "color way"?) I've never really done that before; it sure makes a difference, doesn't it?

    It looks fabulous.
    Brilliant using the panel blocks for the setting squares/triangles!

    Yeah that was something of a happy accident.

    Pretty happy with it; now working my way outward.
