I did some reading on them online and decided on the templates. I know myself and having the templates was the way to go for me. They were expensive but if it makes it simple to do then I would use them more.

I do you hope you try one. It is a beautiful pattern and can look many different ways. I saw a picture of all graduated shades of one color and it was almost an optical illusion, like a hologram look. I might try one like that someday.

WOW !! I can't imagine all of that being done in only 3 days. The piecing is gorgeous. Your choice of fabrics is so perfect. One of these days I'm going to make a blue and yellow quilt..........

Pam- I bought a pattern, brought it with me to work to gaze upon. This is going to be my quilt for my bedroom. I've had the fabric for over a year, I can't wait to figure out how I want to lay it out. Need to get my wips done!!!

Thanks for posting your quilt. As much as I love the dahlia, until I saw yours, I would never have thought to try it.

Can't wait to see yours finished!

Barb
