They are beautiful, but I can see why you got burned out making so many similar quilts.... What is the background pattern on pictures 3-6? I really like it!
These backgrounds, I mean... Is there a pattern name for that. please and thank you?

If there is a pattern for the block, I don't know what it is called. I had no pattern for any of these. I saw a picture of a quilt made with mixed up pieces and tried to duplicate it. Here is what I came up with. You need 8 different fabrics. As you can see, I have no quilt program and this is colored with broken colors, but I think you get the idea.The only piece I kept consistent in the center, was the pink piece representing my wildlife fabric. All other fabric I laid out, as I went, so I tried not to get two of the same fabrics touching. I also wanted a more mixed up look than all the blocks the same.You can make a whole quilt like this. You can also make all the blocks scrappy instead of repeating the same 8 colors, but I'm sure you realize that.Thank you for liking my quilts!-Toogie[ATTACH=CONFIG]620607[/ATTACH]
ps. forgot to say, I do have some strips with 2 1/2 in sqs and rectangle 2 1/2 x 4 1/2 in between a few blocks, to make it fit my panel. Other than those the blocks are the same. So without a panel, you won't have a problem.

Thank all of you for looking and commenting on my quilts. I have one more label to sew on, before starting to wrap them all. It's already embroidered, so not much left.Merry Christmas to All!-Toogie
