ohh- love all the pictures!
I've got all the blocks put together. I think this is the layout I'm going with. The nine patch are placed randomly, and I'm not going to worry about them.
My design wall is a pad hung over a projector screen. It's too floppy for things to stick, so I have to pin everything. Still works much better than what I did before - lay it all out on the bed.
I was going to make it square, but I like this better - 50" x 65". I'm considering a border, but not sure if I want to deal with any more little pieces.
A piano key border would enlarge it, different small pieces.

My goodness, Macybaby, that's wonderful!!
Really, I'm loving all the pics!
So, I got a little done last night, and some done today on my LA challenge quilt. There are three blocks that repeat around a center block, with different colorways on each block.
I had made the joke with my group that I was going to "dress up like Judi Madsen" since I started this on Halloween, and "maybe I'll be able to quilt like Judi".
I'm over halfway done... so maybe with a little more time tonight, and some time tomorrow, this will be ready for my LA guild meeting next Saturday. I don't have a robot system, this is all done either FMQ or with rulers. I picked out the blocks from "501 Rotary Cut Blocks" by Judy Hopkins.
My LA only has an 18" throat, so I had to roll it half-way through doing the center block. The finished quilt will be about 42" square.

Thanks for the VQW - this was my first, and I really enjoyed it!
