    (accidentally posted on Row Robin group...oops...wish we could delete a post!)

    Here is my finished center 18"x24". The center star points and 3" pinwheels on top/bottom are all 3-d.

    These are all Kansas Troubles fabrics if you need an idea of colors...I understand not all have them and am ok with other designers being used too...just ask that you stick with the same tone/palette as much as possible...I gave you lots of colors to choose from. This quilt will be used on a daybed in my living room. I've made several quilts with these fabrics since they "go" in our cabin in the woods feel.

    Well I am half way through my center. I chose the most complicated paper piecing pattern I've ever tried with almost 400 pieces! Also any tricks for uploading photos? Every time I try it says file failed...

    You need to resize photos...I usually make the 500 pixels the biggest side when I resize.

    I love pp'ing and can't wait to see what you come up with.

    Ack, I'm still drafting, my sewing room needs to be unpacked but I only need a couple of the larger pieces. Gee, all I wanna do now is sew and not work. I think I will, lifes far too short.
