I really look forward to seeing it Jaba.
The Labyrinth is on my design wall right now. Just have one more border to put on then it's time to quilt it. Pic is on my sewing room computer so will post later. It's black/gray and white. Then another one needs to be done in purples. One tip....be sure to label those strips like the pattern says. All those pieces can get confusing

Ive got all 5 of the lst block cut and sewn with end pieces..now to try to get them made into a "block"...Im so use to working with 12 1/2" blocks that getting use to these larger strips is a little confusing. I agree with Jaba..labeling the strips helps. Had to dig thru my supplies to find a white marking pencil for the black and dark grey fabrics. Im interested to see how you use blues, yellows and purples with the blocks.. Would you still use the light grey and dark grey too? PLEASE post whenever you all get yours done!!

Joan, I just used a regular #2 pencil for marking and it showed up fine. Didn't want to worry about getting that white off of the black. Here's a pic, just have the final black border to put on.[ATTACH=CONFIG]551605[/ATTACH]

Jaba did you have trouble with strip "D"? I found on all 5 that it was a tad too long with the two end pieces on it. I think if i make it again Ill try it at 18" instead of 18 1/2 . The lines didnt quite match up and I had to resew the two end 3 1/2" pieces on again so they fit better. Yours looks great!! I havent even cut out the San Luigi blocks yet. What size will yours end up? Im trying to make mine for a King size bed...hope I have enough fabric for borders..

Joan, I can't remember any problems with putting it together, in fact I do recall thinking this was the easiest and best written pattern I have ever done. The seams lined up perfect for me, but I did pin those intersections to make sure. It came out to the exact size as the pattern says. I'm just trying to decide how to quilt this right now and what color thread or if I need to use different colors of thread for each section.
