Love those squares. I can't wait to see the whole quilt. Fall colors are my favorite.

Anyway, enough of my rambling. Those blocks are great. They remind me of the gal who wrote the book about it being OK to sit on her quilt. Mary Ellen Hopkins. When you said you sewed the strips together then cut them up in blocks. She would always say, it's your quilt, it's your block, it's your measurement.

Keep up the good work. :thumbup:

I have no idea--but I'm out and I really want more. It was one of my favorite fabrics in the fall circular log cabin I did--which is where most of these scraps came from.

PS--dreamer--maybe you meant the border on the one square??? I got that at a local Mennonite shop. I've seen similar at Keepsake Quilting. They often have some neat batik like fabric.
