    Here is the quilt top I made. I used about 210 four-inch squares that seem to have been accumulating for the last 10 years. They are set on point and sashed with narrow strips. I haven't decided quite how I want to quilt it yet, though!

    Maggiem, I love the way you went from dark to light and those batiks are beautiful.

    Thank you, Kathleen ! Making the colours move was fun. The squares themselves are actually mostly prints and blenders (lots of Jinny Beyer) sent by the Cotton Club years ago. I'm not sure what kind of border it needs - I think the summer will bring some ideas.

    I love yours, too! Aren't the blocks easy and very satisfying to make?

    I found the book very easy to follow, sometimes it's easier to see it printed and work from there. Her instructions were very clear and the pictures showed the steps quite well. I recommend the book, and it didn't cost too much at all.
