    Christine - your batiks are wonderful! Very classy.

    For those using yardage with one fabric per colour, how large do we cut the square for the setting triangles since we won't be sewing two pieces together? I can't wrap my mind around the number and I've misplaced my book with the sizes of various setting Ts.

    ETA: I found the measurements: 14" for the setting triangles cut twice on the diagonal and 7-1/4 for the corner squares cut once. I think I'll go 1/2" larger to give myself wiggle room.
    This is the page where I found the measurements - scroll down to the bottom for the chart. https://www.generations-quilt-patter...triangles.html

    I love the reveal. It will be tricky to sew together and keep those sashing pieces facing the right direction. Hope I don't stall on final assembly the way I did on Allietare. Much as I love it, it's still a UFO due to on point setting.

    Wow, Bonnie's quilt is really beautiful!

    I was somewhat discouraged yesterday, as my eye could not make visual sense of this block in the straight position, but I can easily see the shape on point, so I'm glad it's an on point setting. For me this has kind of a Southwest, Native American feel.

    Christine, your block is gorgeous.

    quiltsRfun, your fabrics look wonderful together.

    I'm part of the turtle brigade also, and I don't see a completed top any time soon. I hope to keep working on clue 6 today, and I have to make several replacements for units that were too small. Then it's back to clue 2, and then the interminable clue 3 before I start sewing those pairs of geese together. Seeing the beautiful finish should keep me going (I hope).

    I really like the quilt. One surprise for me is that I thought the turquoise would be the dominant color.

    Same here, b/c more yardage was stated for it.

    It surprised me too. I'm just glad I have two daughters... one of them is bound to like it!

    Yes, me too. I guess the setting triangles take so much fabric which is why we needed more aqua. With my using the strong coral/orange, it will be one bright quilt!
