This is for my daughter - I used almost all fat quarters and it came out scrappy looking. Now to sew the blocks together - in rows, so I don't lose the design :)

That came out great! You are right, keeping the pieces where you want them can be a challenge. But you'll do it! :)

Beautiful....love the colors! It's funny but I never really batted an eye at purple until getting two DDILs who absolutely love purple. Now I am always looking for purple fabrics to add to my collection and someday make them purple quilts. Yours is just stunning. Great job. Please post again when completed and quilted.

Love that word "purpleicious", perfect fit for this beautiful quilt.

One way to keep the order of pre-sewn blocks that works especially well for me is to use those little colored circles that are commonly used on garage sale items, etc.

I have found that if I place the tag in the upper left of each block - far enough in that it won't get caught in the seam - that it not only keeps the blocks in order, but keeps the direction too (put a little line under the number so you know which is the bottom - keeps from confusing 6s and 9s, for instance).

The numbering I usually use is 1-1 for first row - first block. So, if they all fall off the design wall at once, or you need to remove them for another project, when you pick up one with 4-2 in the upper left, you'll know that it's the fourth row, second block.

Works great when you have to jump to another project right in the middle. The tags stay on very well and reattach multiple times - just place them back on the paper from the package.

Saves a lot of frustration.

The alternative: Take a picture and reconstruct.

Either way, you haven't lost the design.

I love your DPN! My daughter would love the purple! Great Job!
