This is the main part of a quilt for the double bed in our son's guest bedroom. I made the Shoo Fly blocks oversized, then cut them down at an angle to make them 'dance'.

I'm going to do a modified quilt as you go by sandwiching and quilting this part, then doing the other parts separately and putting them together at the end.

What do you think?
