Very nice. I really like the pattern.

honestly? i find it a little boring. but if you have fabric you really want to feature, it could be a really lovely serene work.

I do a lot of charity quilt, and have tried tweaking the standard square in a square. I found this pattern and it is fun with two sides being 2" finished and the other two sides being 3" finished. Then it is fun to lay out the blocks rotating them until your happy with the final results. Try changing your blocks and see if you like the results. I TOO have EQ5 and it is so much fun to play with color and quilt designs. :)

It depends on what you like.

Sure is a beautiful quilt! Did you notice how the background print is not interrupted by seams? If you make this in the normal way, there will be seams and the seams will show when the pattern is interrupted. There are two ways that I can think of to do it differently: one is to put your beautiful batiks in the center blocks and leave the outsides a plain or very small print. Another is one I've seen on this board sometime. Sew the center blocks onto the larger squares with a top-stitch, and leave the edges raw. You may not want that on something so pretty. So how about facing the small squares with dryer sheets sewn onto the right side, slit them and turn, and then top-stitch right on the edge of the small square. Lots of work, but the print background would be whole.
