    who? me?

    i'm flattered by the compliment, but am laughing remembering the amount of time i spent going through my scraps to come up with that combination. took longer to do that than it did to cut and piece the block. LOL

    color selection is a right-brain skill. i'm ... like ... 90% left-brain.
    :shock:

    I know it's tempting, Tim ... and Kathy. but DON'T say it.

    it's worth looking at twice :-)

    i love the way you switched the colors in the triangles. looks like a spinning pinwheel and ribbons. i'd never have "seen" that possibility.

    i bow in awe
    :P

    amazing how each of us "sees"so differently. I really like the colors and subtle changes you made. I am still not ready to face the challenge of this block, too many aspecs for just red,white and blue.

    I thank you in humble appreciation, because honestly, I didn't see the ribbons until you pointed them out. :lol:

    I really do appreciate your comments. I just wish there were a way to have the fabrics display on-screen in their true colors (they are a lot more vivid in real life). Maybe this is due to me rushing through the photography :oops: ? Anyway, thanks y'all!!

    I think it looks great. I know what you mean about the colors I had a mint green in one and the pic made it look like dingy white

    different shades and values of those 3 colors perhaps?
    throw in a little yellow and/or orange? those two colors look fabuloso in rwb blocks.
