Thanks for the compliments.

Lawsonmugs: I like that pink with a mauve tone. Your blocks look great!

Givio: The white with a small design really makes the block pop!

Please don't look close at my points.Thanks to Paint me Judy and her wonderful Mystery Train rides I have learned to make hst without crying.lol. She puts them in all the mysteries I think. My pictures are kinda dark the black looking squares are really a semi dark brown.

Beautiful lawsonmugs! The mauve pink is very pretty too.

Sew cute all of the blocks.

Is anyone else besides me making a bigger quilt?

It also seems most are following the color scheme. Is that what people are planning on?
I am using a huge pile of FQs mostly from one line so I am going block by block and am working my way through the FQs.

Is anyone planning a different layout?
I am thinking of skipping the border but then hubby mentioned he really liked the border so I might rethink that.

Looks great, Jan. Love the pink-on-pink.

Anna, I am choosing to follow the color scheme, more or less. Not everyone is. All the quilts will be beautiful because the blocks are so nice. I love seeing different color schemes like yours. I'm just not that great at picking them for myself.

I haven't even thought about size or layout, just making one of each block for now. I guess I can make more later if I need/want to. I don't know who my quilt might be for... maybe my son who loves history? And I didn't even notice the border. I need to go back and look!
