    I'm working on a queen sized right now with Eleanor Burns' method from the Egg Money Quilts book. It is a cheater method and will never be as wonderful as the classic, but I would never get the classic method done. So far, it is going well and looks pretty excellent on my "design floor".

    Love the look--great colors. You "really" gotta love the recipient though!

    I did all the melons first sewing the rings to them., then I sewed them top and bottom to the center block forming a full row. Then I put a melon on every other center for the whole row. If I sewed to even numbers on one side of the row on the right side, I sewed to off number blocks on the other side. This way I could sew top to bottom of a row. The rows went so fast. It was doing the rings onto the melon that took the longest. This quilt was the most time consuming quilt I have ever made. But it is gorgeous. Your colors are so pretty.
