    Mine's currently Bento Box - see my avatar. I've made it in these Japanese Koi prints, in pastel pink/green, in batiks and in 30's fabrics. No matter how many times I make it, I still find myself getting up from a deep sleep to run and rearrange a couple of squares on my design wall. It's so much fun to make I don't think I'll ever get sick of it.

    Oh - and I love your Take 5. I've never made one, but it looks like a lot of fun too.

    Yes, I am currently making a quilt for my boyfriend for Father's day that is just simple 2" squares of regular fabric and a great manly fleece material. I made my friend some now pot holders/coaster/hot pads using the same 2" squares in various greens (her favorite color). I love being able to arrange them and have them all the same size. But I do need to move onto something more challenging, maybe something with triangles. Still learning teaching myself so everything is a baby step but at least I'm getting somewhere!

    I love the pattern and your quilts are so pretty. I have never made the same pattern twice. I have so many I wish to make and as I am now 73 I feel I will not get to so many of them.

    They both do look so different, I like them both. Like you fabric choice for the boarders too.

    I did that with Patches and Pinwheels. Finally got it out of my system. I refuse to make them for anyone anymore.

    I have made 2 I-Spy quilts and am starting a third one. I am going to give them as gifts.

    Your quits look great.

    Mine was "warm wishes". I do like the pictures of the "take 5" and have the pattern as well as the "bento box" guess I better dig them up.

    I have made the same design only once. I want to try as many different designs as I can.
