I am going to post my quilt top photo now. I can't decide if I like it or not, but at least I don't dislike it.[/quote]

Your quilt reminds me of old Persian tile work. It is gorgeous!

Weezie, what's not to like???? I love it. I like the border fabric you chose. It really highlights all your blocks. And your blocks all work so well together. I love the diagonal setting. Can you tell I really, really, really like your quilt?? Great job--I'm clapping for you and patting you on your back. So glad you were part of this group-you encouraged me and taught me along the way. Thank you!!

It turned out to be a stunning quilt, unique, warm, interesting and beautifully color coordinated. Be very proud of your accomplishment. Belles

Thank you, Belles. To tell you the truth, I was pretty thrilled that I managed to get all the blocks & rows sewn together without going completely bonkers ... I say this because each of the blocks were to be exactly 6-1/2" square and, unfortunately, some of mine were just a tad too big and others a tad too small. I had to "encourage" them to fit together and they cooperated quite well.
