Tartan's idea was great! I'm with you on this! Let's call it Jacob's Beauty! For anyone making it, this is what I did: pay no attn. to the scraps you use, but make sure your intersections are dramatized! Do each intersection (that's where the JL's diagonal 4 HST's meet) with similar colors so that it ties the quilt together and gives the eyes a coordinated look. All the blocks between those intersections are just lighter in color than the JL's diagonal bands. It will work great for you no matter what colors are in your quilt! Just a tip for you...n2. Thank you, gollytwo and thanks to all others with your super compliments!!
