    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!!
    We get the idea. I know that batik you used for the center edge triangle. It's a nice yellow-orange with the green leaves tracking through it. Gorgeous.

    Perhaps a bit of editing wih the hue adjuster in your favorite photo modification program. I am sure all them colors just pop out in the real thing.

    Nice job.

    Thankz ya for the comment!!

    You quilt & gotz brains too!!!! I'll play around with the photo edit buttons & see what I can do. I don't know why I never thought of it; it's not like I wasn't already in the program to crop out the extra background. I'm so glad y'all are here to think for me!!! :lol:

    I put all the individual squares together on Saturday night before I fell. I hah it all put together except for the 4 corner blocks to be set in. I had to do them the beginning of the week by hand using a backstitch. I would not want to do a whole quilt and all piecing by hand, especially when I've only one working at the moment. :roll:

    can't get it to work, will send to you Patrice, tears

    Hello all,
    This is the first time I have posted here so hope it is right. I just finished my frolic block, I had a little trouble when I first started but it seemed to come out OK. Now, I will try arrowheads. :D

    considering what a great job you did on the Frolic, i'll bet your Arrowheads hit the target in the bull's eye.
    :P
