A little applique, a little paper piecing, I had lots of fun for days. Then I needed help with sashing ideas and got great color advice from QB, of course. All of this came from scraps and stash.
Anyway, here's the finished top. The outer border has 4-patch cornerstones but they don't show in the picture. One picture couldn't show all the rows, so there are two shots of it. This was a lot of fun...no stressing about measurements or patterns! Thanks for the help and thanks for looking!

This is a great quilt ! As a lover of paper piecing, I can understand how much fun you had with this! I am doing something similar and scrappy to finish the Houses BOM from last year.

I haven't seen anything like this before, but it's fabulous! Now I know what I can do with all the trial blocks I make in the coming years and will try to be sure I make them all the same size! Great job!
