Gorgeous blocks so far. I wouldn't have been able to see those in the original print. You have a good eye for fabric selection. I really want to try one of these, even bought a couple fabrics just to play with. Maybe now that the holiday sewing crunch is over!

I bought some fabric to make a wall hanging to try it out first. But can't find the repeats on mine.

Looks fantastic...I even like the fabric "before" - sometimes the "before" fabric is a bit unappealing. This is going to be amazing when you're finished. Looking forward to updates (hint, hint).
