Penny, I got the same thing on her site but was able to follow the link from FB to get it.

Does anyone have the side kick ruler? If so do you think it will work for this block? I am hoping it will work out for me since I do have it but none of the others BH rulers.

No idea what neutral I will use......

What lovely big pieces, and only 100.

I was guessing we'd use the purple this time.

Quilting Vagabond, I have a similar magenta dilemma. I never found one that seemed just right and have two to choose from. For what it's worth, I think your first one there isn't quite bright enough. I'm liking the one on the right better than the center. It has the sparkly variation of darker and lighter, and I think it would make some fabulous points.

Thank you ladies! I am able to bring up the link now.

QuiltingVagabond, I'd rule out the one on the left. I like a big contrast between the middle and side triangles and I think the left one would blend with the neutrals. These pieces made a big impact on the Celtic Solstice and Cathedral Stars. Both of these patterns used a light and dark. My thoughts for what it's worth.

Thanks for your opinions, I made a Cathedral Stars and used a dark magenta for those points. It looked great! Wish I had more of it LOL

Since the magenta goes with the neutrals I can see the one on the right playing nicely Lisa.
The one on the left was my original (and favorite) but it may not be the right one for this project.

Hi! Do you know which AccuQuilt die it is that we can use for this step?

Thanks!

I have a question about the magenta too, if you all don't mind giving me some suggestions. The black and pink floral fabric is what I want to use, but I am wondering if it looks to much like one of my dark greens with little toys in it. I love that fabric and think it gives it some extra interest, so I really want to keep it. Please tell me what you think? With or without the green toy fabric? My fabrics are all FQ and scraps, but the dark greens are at least a yard each. I hope my pictures didn't load the size of a house here!

I don't have the Trirecs ruler. I do have the easy angle rulers from last year's mystery quilt--will they work somehow???. I am "angle challenged".
