    Nine of the squared blocks were done weeks ago, and here's what I got done today. There are 36 seams to pin in every blasted square! NOT that I'm counting! :|

    WFLC next....

    What's done....

    Love, love, love your green floral! It feels peaceful.
    It's so fun seeing how blocks change their look in different layouts.

    The first picture is of the squares in the watercolor floral that's for sale, the second photo is of four squares I finished today. (I needed to stop pinning for a bit!:roll: )

    I love the new design, but I'm getting very critical. I think all the beige only strips will be coming out of the light side options. I like all greenish better. There's one spot I goofed and didn't get light to darker... but these can be practice squares. Each block is decided on individually.

    Old squares and new pattern idea

    I agree b.zang! I saw this fabric in a Mennonite shop twice before I succumbed. I adored it every time, but was trying to use self control. :lol: It's so calming. The pattern calls for 60+ squares, but I think I'll make a lap quilt for me and use the rest for baby quilts.
