    I am making a fancy throw for my fancy new sofa (which I won't be using for another 2 years, long story!) so there is no rush but I am paper piecing these and I am going 6 blocks across but now that I see them I am thinking that maybe I should do a large pieced panel in the middle. It would be very busy looking if I just did all of these blocks for the whole quilt or would it as it is the pattern. I'm not sure.

    What do you all think?

    Oh my goodness, what gorgeous colors and pattern. A quilt out of just the blocks would be amazing.

    I'm not sure, but sure love the colors. Will be watching to see what everyone else thinks.

    Maybe a sashing between blocks will break it up a bit-I love the colors and that is a great block!

    A sashing of the blue/turquoise color would be beautiful. Maybe a cornerstone of the brown!?!? Those are gorgeous colors and beautiful pattern!
