Yes, I hope to end up with 4. One for my daughter, mom, sister and brother.

I've also been pleasantly surprised at the differences the fabric choices make. Actually I wondered why I didn't make them all the same, but that would be too boring!

I wish I would have thought of making more than one. It is much easier to do it now, because usually when I'm done with a quilt, the last thing I want to do is do it again. You're doing a great job!!!

I was asking for rottary instruccions but I went ahead and use them from EQ. Here is my #6. I'll try to make a couple more blocks this week so I start catching up.

Very pretty leakus. I really like the richness the deep purple adds.

Leakus, The rotary instructions are in a new posting every week in the "Block of the Month and Week" on Tuesday evening after 10 p.m. There are two blocks a week listed and they arelisted by block# and week #. For example:Tuesday Sept 22 will be week 8 block #'s 15 & 16. This is the only place I was told to post the instructions.

There are many quilters who have their blocks already done when I post the instructions. There are many who wait until I post the measurements because this is the way they prefer to do it. There are no rules as to when the blocks need to be done. We are just setting a pace of 2 a week to be posted for Photos, Discussion & Rotary Cutting if needed and the "block of the Month and Week" is where to find them.

Yes, I love purples but have never done a quilt in purples. I am liking it so far. My blocks have all the parsley fabric so I think it will end up being light, that is why I am trying to use dark.
