This is going to be very cool when done. The strips are going to make a diamond pattern with the black outlining them. Very cool.
peace

That will be a nice quilt! After 120 blocks, you should really reduce your stash too.

That is beautiful. I love the black and how it makes the other colours pop. Will be waiting to see more.

The black is a nice touch. I always think that a scrappy quilt will reduce my stash, but sadly it doesn't. The scraps multiply.

if you want to not have the bulk in the center, an old tailors trick was to put a drop of water and then press with the iron. It will flatten all those seams in the middle. It works great
