    I understand your dilemma. There are so many possibilities. I'll be watching to see how this turns. out.

    P.S. I sure don't like the look of that wink!

    Beautiful. There are so many different ways to set these up. No matter how you do it it will be just beautiful. You just gave me a great idea. Thank you.

    Those blocks are great! Such wonderful colors! In the post from "thepolyparrot" I especially like the zig zag effect or the one to the left of it. Wiht the black the colors will stand out so nice. Please post a picture after you've gotten the top pieced so we can see which way you decided to go.

    When I saw the designs from the EQ I really like the braided one also, but I am extremely drawn to the pinwheel pattern. I think though what ever one you pick it will look wonderful and will be the one that the blocks were meant to be. As I have been told by my expert mom, "You are the Queen of your own quilt."
    BE THE QUEEN!!!!

    There's a block called "Wagon Wheel" and it uses HST's. I made one with these large HST's like yours and it turned out great.

    Oh Kyrstyna no matter what design you choose it's going to be lovely....it is so you to keep the design you chose a secret!!!! :0)

    I like you think I should be looking at EQ but then I would be playing with designs, reading the messages here and never getting to the sewing machine!!! Oh the conundrums of life!
