Yes, very cool indeed (except the loose piece doesn't match the spot it's lying next to...)

I love the colour combo, and the "unfinished" piece. Thank you so much for sharing both the photos and the pattern!

I couldn't find a pattern, especially not one with end pieces, so I designed my own in Excel (sheet attached). At the time, I didn't have the $ to afford the border fabric, so it was put on hold. Well, full time over-minimum wage job later, I bought the fabric and finished the top. The border fabric color was inspired by my floor, since I loved how the quilt looked on the wood. I appliqued the blue piece onto the border. It was my 2nd applique piece and overall I'm really happy with it. Now to quilt it!

Attached are 2 pictures of the quilt, the Excel sheet where each square = 1" finished, and a JPEG picture for anyone who can't DL the Excel sheet.

I love it, but as some one that's done tons of puzzles, I have to point out that the piece on the side, doesn't go there.
