It certainly looks great to me. I wouldn't go pulling anything off, but if you think there might be a problem perhaps a bit of decorative stitching for added security might make you feel better about it.

Patti - another lovely block. Am anxious to see the finished quilt. Actually an getting anxious to see MY finished quilt, but I am still plugging along on the biggie border & the final shark tooth border, too.

Thanks...I was thinking about adding some decorative stitching like is shown in the LBB book....ha!! See!! And ya'll think I wasn't really studying that book! LOL! I know I'll douse it with fray check. Its the gold scrolls that I'm really worried about, Rox...I got the little orange pieces just fine. I actually learned to make sure the teeniest pieces were being done with a batik...it just seems to work better for me.

Kathy...I'm getting anxious, but I still lack quite a few blocks AND of course the entire outer border which still hasn't germinated in my head :roll:

nice job, you must have alot of patience!

I didn't think I would ever decide on that design - for the biggie border. I kept thinking - what if I did . . . not normal for me. I usually just plunge in & do it. Then, if I don't like it, I'll do something else, but not this time!!! I am taking a break from AOTH today. TV was delivered this morning & we spent the bulk of the afternoon driving from one car lot to another looking for a replacement for the van. It seems that one dealership here has bought out all the other dealerships with the exception of the Chrysler/Dodge one. I think we found our next vehicle - a Honda Ridgeline mid-size pick-up. Having to be able to load an electric wheelchair into the vehicls cut our choiced way down. We have a Dodge minivan now, but had to give up the middle row of seating to get the chair in. Can't take passengers with us unless & stumble around and stuff myself into the back on the 3rd row bench - not fun! Chair lift is in the way & I have to get out backwards (butt first) - not a lady-like position. We wanted to get a vehicle that would let us have the 2nd row back & eliminate the back row, but the vans aren't high enough at the opening. Didn't really want a conversion van - mileage stinks in them! Not in a great hurry to make up minds, but the truck is doable! :thumbup:

goodness, patti...I didn't tell you how much I like this block?
I do, and especially that green.
I found something sorta-kinda like that...foggy at the moment, but can't wait to use it.
T'is not to be at the moment, but eventually ;-)

Well, finally this block is complete and I am not bald! Thought I would pull my hair out doing this one..... Really beginning to hate those swirleys

Patti...it looks lovely! The blue looks like the color is moving across the scroll around the flower in the center. Is there 1 missing??? It isn't showing up on my screen...it could be dark and I can't see it though.

It is a very dark blue, when I saw the picture, I am considering replacing it.....much as I hate to say that.....

beautiful
