    Great start, but I can see that one has to be quite farsighted to keep going through the odd look of a single piece ... how intriguing! <wave>

    here is some playing, I just put together a bunch of pieces and can play for hours now, well, maybe not hours, There is a limit but I want to do the simpler ones as well, we will see, and the way that I did it the math wasn't hard at all, the strips are all the same width, it is all in the arrangement, all 6 pieces are different color combinations,

    ok finally got all blocks sewn in halves now I started to work on my layout last night with DH's help and here is what I got so far. I already see some I want to move. My idea was for the black to start in one corner and work it down to the other in a diagonal type curve/swirl withthe yellow and pink blocks around it. right now the black is too bulky so I need to thin it out a bit. what do you think

    Try taking the multiple rows of black down to one row from corner to corner, then fill with the black edged, then the black to white, then the black to pink on each side. Just an option that came to me while staring at it.

    It's beautiful and I know you'll find a layout that pleases you. I walked by mine for four days, changing at least two every time I walked by it. I love the print.
