Love the end result. Well done and too all those who could see the outcome before it was done. Must say, i was a bit STUMPED so did not comment.

Great work on this twister quilt, I really like your color compliments, it would be a perfect pattern for my charm pack. Another for my to do list! Love it!

I agree
It's a great looking quilt

Go with the borders! I have the Omnigrid Offset Square template but haven't really studied it yet. U did a great job.

I assume you used your 6-1/2 template to do this. What size block of fabric did you use and what was the size of the border? Thanks, Janet

Janet I used 10" blocks with a 6½: border. actually I never ran short on a block but 10½" block would be safer LOL Its at the quilters now and I'll post when its done...

Hi! Actually I think Linda meant to say the 8.5 inch square will work perfectly with the 6.5 template! Linda helped me with this about 6 weeks ago. She suggested that I use the 8.5 inch square. The 6.5 inch template just barely fits in the 8 inch square. The 8.5 square will give a little wiggle room! Thanks for the help on this Linda. It turned out great. :)

well its back from the quilters and she did a terrific job, all over pattern..I have decided to send it to the quilts/of/valor program...have done the pillowcase and its ready to go. I won't add another picture cuz with the maintenance we've had everything is soooo slow. it was alot of fun to do and now thinking about an all over scrappy pastel version...hugs

Beautiful quilt and I like the borders, especially since picking up the yellow in the quilt gives it sparkle. Great job.
