I like your analogy of the quilt design process like working a puzzle. :)

I like that you made 4 patches in your layout vs. every square a different fabric in rows. Thanks for the explanation. Enjoy your pretty quilt!

I love this! Colorful and dramatic, with the black sashing, and the quilting sets it off! Also, great back! No way is this ugly!

Nice use of scraps. I am particularly impressed that you did this all by hand. So nicely done and I hope you really enjoy it.
