That is a fabulous quilt! Thanks for the link, DeeDee!

Hope the move goes great. I can't imagine that you won't love Hawaii, once you get settled.

I made one for my sister from apple fabrics. I don't have a pic as she has it, but it turned out beautiful. I did make it square and she loved it. Using rectangles would work just as well and I think you will be pleased with the results. Pics when you get it done (smile). I hope you love Hawaii!!

I was wondering if anyone has made a massive log cabin quilt block. Like one block to make the top. Instead of a square center have it rectangle so the top didn't turn out square. And then just keep adding row after row after row. Lol might be interesting. I tried to google it but came up with nothing. Anyways just my random thought :)

I have these books: http://www.amazon.com/Over-Easy-Crea...4804486&sr=1-1 & http://www.amazon.com/Sew-One-Youre-...4804567&sr=1-1that oversizes so many blocks.

Best of luck in Hawaii. I'm sure you will love it there. Stop by Leonards on Oahu and have a Malisada.
