Well, I probably am going to be a dissenting voice and say I like the strong yellow. Since you don't have many pastels in the quilt, I think it goes together very well. Then again, this is coming...

Substituting the burgundy for the red really made all the difference. As others have said, Bonnie's quilts never look good when viewed a block at a time and up close. Try putting four blocks up on...

I like the second colourway very much except for the strong orange squares. They just seem to shout at me. Maybe use something a bit softer? Although in re-reading your earlier post I realize the...

I do my own quilting and don't worry about how the seams end up. And if they don't play nice I just allow them to twist halfway or so between the seams. No one sees the back of the quilt, so I...

GramE, your quilt arrangement is fabulous. Isn't it amazing how many different designs are coming out of the same basic set of squares?

Playswithcolour -- Wow! Even after doing this quilt, I can't figure out how you managed that arrangement. I love the magenta and green stars surrounded by the circles of purple/ lavender.

I'm done. It measures 56 x 72". That is my preferred size for charity quilts. The six blocks don't have the impact of 12 or 16, but I'm basically happy with it.

Carol - your quilt is fabulous. I like the fact you used a constant yellow and that you subbed the Tri-Recs to make the circles. If you want it larger, I'd be tempted to do a narrow border of...

Wonderful photos. I finally finished putting the blocks and sashing together -- just 6 blocks but the quilt is still going to be big. I'm now putting on a narrow inner border and will just use the...

I use the Tri-Recs ruler. Cut the strips to 3-1/2", cut out the triangles and side pieces and sew them together. After making probably 300 or more in three quilts, I still can't get them to come...

The more I see those circles, the more I wished I'd used tri-recs instead of the QSTs. But I'm not going back and ripping them out. Plus a really don't like making the Tri-recs. I'll have to find...

Wow, Jaba -- great going. I'm slowly getting mine done -- four blocks finished and sewn together with sashing, and only two to go. I must say the full sized quilt is fabulous.

Kalama - interesting layout. The magenta stars really show up and define the pattern. And I love the way you handled the corners.

It seems like several are using the Tri-Rec block instead of...

Sheep farmer -- I'm doing a 2 x 3 layout and think it will be 54 x 72". That includes an additional 1-1/2" inner border. I usually make throw quilts so that is the perfect size for me.

Cathy and SBG, your finishes are fabulous. I had planned on using a third border, so am very glad to see the one that SBG did. The green really brings out the other greens in the quilt.

If I hadn't already gotten the yellow QSTs done, I'd probably follow your example also. But I hate to waste 40 blocks that I have no other use for.

NZ quilter -- I really like your rendition -- the circle effect is brilliant. Did you just change the QSTs in the sashing to tri-recs to get that effect?
