I got a little more done on mine. There will be no sashing between the 9 patches, but not every block in the layout will have the 9 patches ................................ spoilers sweetie!!!!!! lol lol lol DW fans will get that.

I am loving the alternate colors and the alternate settings that are being posted here. Sew biz- your colors just pop! Kass- as always, your alternative layouts are fabu! Sorry, I am forgetting all the posts that I wanted to mention... this is why I need to keep a piece of paper next to my computer.....

I'm still struggling with whether I want to do Bonnie's layout--I am not thrilled with some of my fabric choices in the Melon/Coral family--they ended up being too light in value to my eye, which adds a lot of confusion and makes them appear too washed out for my taste. Here's a photo showing 9 blocks which I put on my design wall before the reveal, so no sashing. I sort of like the secondary pattern and the way the blue glows, which might get lost if I do the sashing....Or, I could do a small version BHs way and then do the rest my way (since I made all the units for the full size). Or perhaps if I took apart the blocks and redid them using more similar units within blocks so that there is more unity within each block, that might help clarify things, and the whole would still be scrappy....

Rob, I like yours without the sashing as you show. I wouldn't redo any of these little segments. Some of my colors blend in a little more than I like, but I am leaving them, not revisiting them.

Wow, I love all the blocks and variations! The creativity is inspirational.

I'm at various stages with the individual clues but I managed to get one block together. Going to play around with different sashing/setting ideas to see what I can come up with.

Rob, if the sashing muddies it up for you, you could put it together w/o the sashing then use the sashing as borders. Maybe doubling the sashing like windblown showed would be more pleasing to your eye. Or if they are all together maybe rotating the shaded 4 patches on every other block (the ones w/ the lighter coral you aren't as happy with)

I forget which quilter wanted help with on-point. I have done 5 or 6 of them. The design wall is wonderful, but I have to keep reminding myself that the rows are not straight across. You need to tip your head to the side and look at the rows as such: Row 1 (one block) Row 2 [ATTACH=CONFIG]586516[/ATTACH](three blocks) Row 3 (5 blocks) Row 4 (5 blocks), then three and then one. Put the rows together with the short sashing. Then the long sashing goes on after that. The outer edge triangles are sewed on before the rows are joined. I hope I have been clear. This pic is one of my recent finishes. I'm a turtle stuck in the mud on this BHMQ. I'm still on Allitaire.
