Thanks for the instructions. This is definitely one I want to try. They do look larger than this in the photo. Anyway...it is beautiful!

Really nice--love your eclectic fabric choices. I've done a similar pattern with larger bricks in batiks, but I think I like your better with the smaller bricks.

Thank you for all the lovely comments. My cousin is a "he" though and I hope he likes it. I think it is masculine enough for a he or feminine for a she....LOL
