I think its Daystyle designs...wait, I'll find the site for you..

    Here is the link http://freemotionquilting.blogspot.c...on-filler.html I love her blog and look at her stuff for inspiration all the time!
    Pat, thanks for sharing the website, I am familiar with her designs and they are inspirational. You know I never thought about doing each block differently( duh I know), I keep looking at them and think that for many of them there isn't room for much quilting. Not that I need to worry abiut quilting ut yet, I am working on block 7, almost half way done with blocks.

    Candi..I'm thinking this is kinda like Jane....each block can easily be done differently. Of course, with the trapunto between my blocks..it will all tie together anyway. It will with yours too...you are doing on point, right?

    Yup, on point. I guess I need to finish first then I'll worry about quilting, lol.
    I can't wait to see yours.

    Great black and whites. Just made for you.

    I intend doing the QAYG but in smaller sections and hadn't thought about keeping the backing whole though.

    Mind you, I have to finish a few more blocks first. :lol: :lol:

    Wow Candace, those DO look like they were born to be in your quilt! Just think of the cool fussy cutting you can do with that swirly one in particular! (Innocently my right eye!- LOL!)

    Thats the thing about QAYG that bothered me...I didn't want all those seams on the back, but I do want the quilting to show on the back this time. (I did my Jane differently). I think this way will be perfect way to do it...we'll see anyway!
