    Default The shadows show already.
    I've wanted to try this pattern for a long time. Made 40 blocks so far--plan to make wall hangings. There are two ways I want to do it, so one of each for now. I combined two sets of directions to make these. I was so happily surprised with the photo, taken to see if I like the lay-out, showed the shadow effect already. Cool.

    looks good. I made one of these and was very happy with how it turned out. Your colors are great and will show the shadow wonderfully. Can't wait to see the finished quilt!

    Oh, now I see it! At first, when I looked at the pic I was seeing the cutting mat in the background and couldn't figure out " what shadow"! Then I realized my error and now, yes, looking good!

    Thanks! I wanted to use what I had--so the shadow is blue-ish and the background is white-ish. lol It's working. These will be pretty small--exactly what I need after the monsters I just finished.

    When sewn together the shadow will be so much more prominent. Love the bright stimulating colours.

    Leaders and Enders-This is very neat. If you already use a leader and an ender why not create something as you are already using these scrap fabrics. Check these quilts out! Beautiful and the fabric was not wasted and you created an extra quilt while
