I really loved this fabric too. I made a square in a square variation on point with it. It gives the quilt a lattice like look. It also looks like I pieced the center strip of each block LOL

It is only two different blocks, 3 strips in the center with the focal fabric on two of the corners. One block is made with a light, the other a dark along with the focal fabric.

These blocks are 12" and the top is 5 X 6 block. It worked up VERY fast. I am looking for a darker fabric to border it so I can finish it up :D:D:D

Sorry the picture is wonky, but it was the only place I could lay it out right now :roll:

I used dark toned scraps on a throw for dh and used the patch work for the back.

That is what I was thinking!
Or use it in a big block pattern where you don't have to cut it up so much like turning TWenty!

Amma, I love that top. I also have that fabric and didn't know what to do with it. Would you be willing to give the directions for the top? You did a great job! :thumbup:

Because the blocks were so big, I cut out 12 1/2" squares out of news print and paper pieced them. I just used a ruler and pencil to mark them. The center strips are 4" wide and the side strips are 3" wide.
This was easier than trying to cut the angles for the end pieces of the center strip.
