Thank you! I think maybe I am a glutton for punishment for having 3 of these BOM going but I like trying to make each one a little unique

So different looking from the busy Terrain fabric. These colors have a very calming effect.

Thanks, Penny - the flower in the center is from the fabric that inspired the color choices - I'm hoping to have enough of it for the sashing & borders.

Thanks so much! I am having great fun with this class but keep finding colorways I want to do. I like the sampler part of this as I don't get bored doing the same block over & over.

Is that a Westie I see? How much does your dog like testing a quilt's comfort level? Mine's in charge of comfort quality control when he get a chance to lay on one.

Yes, that is a picture of my old westie called Benjy. Mackenzie (also a westie) has taken over the task of quilt tester. He is involved from the very start and is often found lying in my fabric stash.

Thanks - I found out that anyone who would work with 1/2 " hexies is nuts - I only did three but still felt fumble fingered

Ooops - had a keyboard senior moment - thanks for the kind words. One of the best things about this class is seeing all the great fabrics people have chosen. I only have about another 10 colorways I'd like to do -
