Thank you for posting those, KalamaQuilts!! They are bold, beautiful and fascinating. It's one of the most wonderful thing about quilts, I think, the way our memories of events are sewn right into them.

This was my reaction, too, that it was unusual for Bonnie to call for matching sets. It stands to reason that all four of a set will be used together in a block, wouldn't you say? I'm thinking of that elaborate floor tile in the intro to Part 2, that Bonnie said was the starting point for her selecting this color palette.

I've got my sets complete. And even though I thought I was being careful, I had to rip out four sets as I got the white on white neutral sewing on face down.
But my biggest mistake (and I hope it does not mess me up) is that I got mixed up cutting my 2" squares, and have 80 cut of the constant. I know I started out with more yardage than suggested, so hopefully we'll either need more 2" squares at some point, or I'll have enough yardage left that I won't end up wishing I had another 4" on the end!
Here are my sets

(Hurries off to check all four...)
Yep, all four are backwards :-(. And I had congratulated myself for getting the directional fabrics matching too lol.
thanks for the head's-up :-)

JeanieG, can you post a pic of your Roll Roll Cotton Boll? I'm not familiar with that pattern and I would love to see it, and I'm sure everyone else would enjoy looking at it. Joe'smom,I was thinking the same thing about the tile floor in Bonnies' picture and have been looking at it for clues.....
