So I just finished block number 9. That is pic #1. I took all the blocks and laid them out on the floor so I could how big they looked together and to see how well they went together. That is pic #2.
The blocks are all supposed to be 12 1/2 inches unfinished. Some are, some are just under 12inches unfinished. One question I have, is how do I piece them together with them being different? Do I trim the larger ones to the size of the smallest? Also, I'd like to add a solid color strip between each block, and that color will be the same as the border, I'm thinking I'll use the black fabric I have (4 yards). I also wonder how much bigger I should go quilt size. I'm thinking 3 more blocks or 6 more blocks. Not sure what I want to do and I wanted to get some feeback.
What do you guys think? Please be honest as well. I love constructive critizism (sp?) and any advice anyone has to offer would be greatly appreciated!
