Love your blocks but WANT your hardwood floors. They are beautiful.
LOL Feathers
Pleased you love my blocks - now down to brass tacks as we say on this side of the pond.
The floorboards are solid oak they cost us an arm & leg. Had to laugh as the chap who installed them told DH & I that they would last for years well beyond our life time. Charming huh? LOL
Tisha
BTW I love your Avatar pic :P

We do "brass tacks" on this side of the pond, too. I'm sure the floor boards were extremely expensive but as beautiful as they are, they were worth every penny you paid, I'm sure. As far as out lasting your lifetime, that's OK. Future generations will look at those florrs and say "whoever chose those floors sure had great taste and style."
My avatar is a Dresden Plate block that had stems and leaves added to make each plate look like a flower. The quilt turned out so pretty and my SIL loves it. I gave it to her as a housewarming gift.
Have a good day.

I am wanting to try to ensure that the selection of colours are equal throughout the blocks as I am making mine from lots of different FQ's LOL.
I have thought about adding a dark chocolate brown border to each block then adding sashing in say a Taupe?? What do you think?????
