    Mary - I really like the colors you chose. I am working on the block right now, and I'm having trouble getting the "canes" to line up right sometimes, too.

    I thought I would just sit down this morning and whip out the block, but that is a lot of p.p. units! There aren't a lot of triangles, so it's not difficult, really, just takes time!

    Okay, I finished mine up. As you can see, I did a different color arrangement. I have a lot of bright scraps/small yardage that I am making all my "test" blocks out of lately, so that instead of orphan blocks, I'll have the blocks for a sampler to give to charity.

    A whole quilt of this pattern would look awesome, but would take FOREVER for me to make, so I think this will be the only block like this I do.

    Pretty blocks. I like the colors in both. I hope mine turns out that good. I have company this week-end. Maybe I can get mine done the first of the week.

    fun2quilt - I really like the colors in yours. So bright, and just like amish quilts, the black really sets them off.

    What is that airplane thing in the pic?
