Decisions, decisions!
My aim is to be finished this step by tomorrow so I'll stay caught up.

For a LAP QUILT of about 48 x 60 you'd need 5 times the amount of blocks. Plus borders. And the borders would probably be different, don't think you'd want the borders I am doing for a lap. I think this would make a pretty lap quilt.

I'm trying something unusual for me--low contrast, soft colors. Opinions?
Here are a couple of picks. A-E (left to right): (C is actually yellow, not white and E is the same in each picture, though it looks lighter in one photo)
