Becky, just a thought about table heights. If you have a table with legs in your sewing room and want to raise the height, try the bed lifters. They look like oversized plastic cups and are used to raise the height of beds. Most discount stores have them. Some can raise a bed 6". Because the are strong enough to lift a bed and the sleepers, they can certainly hold a sewing room table. It might get you off the floor and help your back as well.

Your quilt is real pretty -I'm on the short side but my cutting table always seamed to darn low and the back-aches slowed my progress so I put it up on those blocks to lift my bed That extra 4 inches done the trick And I kept my old kitchen base cabs and put new counter tops on them slid them together now I have an 8ftx8ft table and lots of storage And the best part I no longer have to crawl around the floor

BeckyL - hope I'm not to late and you have already sewn this part of your quilt, sorry I see three blocks incorrectly placed, the two you have mentioned in your posts but there is another blue and grey block directly above the other incorrect blue and grey block, again sorry but thought it best to mention it in the hope that if you haven't seen it you can correct it before things go to far.
