    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!

    Lovely Givio! I like the browns and the delicate floral.

    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!
