The group picture is so HOT! You did a wonderful job of mixing and matching. I just posted a few (5) of mine yesterday....finally. I have a smidge left to do on my second hexi. Want to cover up a slight "flaw".......

Blueheron, I don't think I posted the couple of blocks I want to redo. They are really unimpressive. Worked like a dog this week end, finished August - I really like them both. Yea!! Have to finish a hexie one, and redo a couple and I'll actually be caught up just in time for CURVED pieces in September. Hoping I have enough fabric!!!

I used the same red, but did mine on Kona snow. I like yours better. Still working on block number 2 ;)

Love all your blocks, and can't wait to see your August blocks. It's hard to tell from your photos, but is the Kona Snow fabric a good match for the white background fabrics we've been using? I need to order fabric for the sashing in my BOM quilt.

Kona Snow is a very good white fabric. I ordered four yards. Good for the stash!

I like this whole batch also. I have been playing with mine and will be dumping a couple I think. My fabric choices were okay when I started, but a couple are real dogs. Wish I had the eye of some others on here. I think a few adjustments will make all right with the world again. LOL

I've got a couple blocks that I'd like to re-do, too, but will wait 'til the very end to make sure I have enough fabric. Then again, when all the blocks are completed, they might just fit in ok. We'll see. I'm off to check your project photos!

A very happy bunch of squares! I can't wait to see how we will be putting them all together.

Thanks! I've been putting them together in various ways and photographing them each month as the new blocks are added, so I can get a feel for what might look good.

great layout too. I like how some of the blocks 'interconnect' with each other.

I hadn't noticed the inter-connectedness of some of them, until I looked back after reading your comment. Thanks for pointing it out!
