Did you use Rhonda Byers rulers for the curved crosshatch?? Which ones do you have and how do you like them? Looking to order and can't decide which sizes to get.

Oh Dee, it is beautiful. I can hardly wait to see it in person. Just to clarify the history, this is one of six quilt tops I made from blocks that my sister-in-law's mother hand pieced in the 1930's. My sister-in-law found them in a bag at the bottom of a cedar chest and wanted five tops made for her children. This top is a mixture of the blocks that were left from the other tops. There were 42 of the Grandmothers Fan blocks and 42 of the 4-pointed star blocks. I was honored to be asked to piece tops so that the blocks were used. Thank you for making this top a reality and I love it and know that my sister-in-law will also.
