    Bonnie Hunter is thinking about using Rail Fence as the upcoming leaders and enders project.
    I'm rolling the ideas around in my brainpan

    I like all of them Dina, but thinking the first is a bit like a swastika, which is a very old and venerated shape, sadly overshown by more recent history.

    It is a shame that the "swastika" shape is what it is today. I have seen that symbol on really old Native American pottery and such...

    However, if I continue the pattern like this quilt, the problem doesn't show itself.

    You are too funny, Dina, worrying about your poor rejected fabric's feelings.

    I like the first blocks best, as well as the majority here... I agree that the flowers in the second blocks are distracting, and for me the purple in the third blocks is also distracting. The first blocks are harmonious.

    Well, at least I can say that one other person went way out on the same limb with me and we are trembling out there with #2.

    I am odd too. I like 2 best, but they all are nice.
