    It turned out great! Another one that's on my to-do list! I always love how much brighter a quilt gets when you use black in it.

    Great job!

    I really don't know. I usually use muslin or some thin fabric not suitable for blocks. This is the 4th one I have made and the scraps keep multiplying!!! LOL
