I want this block to be the most colorful and then all the rest will go around it. It still has two mor spike rings but i will leave those until I finsih C as you can really join unless you go in the order of the blocks.
I will show the right side of the block and then I have to pin it on the wrong or reverse side on map.

All I can say is again OMG!!! and WOW!!! WOW!!! :shock: :shock: :mrgreen: :-P :-D :lol: :roll: :wink: :XD: :thumbup: :XD:

I've done several of Karen Stones quilts but not Cinco yet. Hugs

There's no applique in this one. It's a New York Beauty type. Mine took me 6 months to piece together, another month to decide the final placement of the blocks, tearing some blocks apart and remaking them w/ different fabric in the arcs. Then a couple weeks to fmq and sitd. I made it in 2 sections, then sewed them together by hand on the back. I'll see if I have a photo of it somewhere.

Your quilt is very pretty!!! :thumbup: :XD: :-D :mrgreen: :-P

It is a Jacqulein De Jonge design. I am a bit lazy to do all that designing not that I won't do it when I'm in the mood....
