Goodness, no wonder mine was added last. It is the ugliest one there. DW you don't have to use it. My feelings would not be hurt.

Right now it looks out of place because of it's size, but once it gets trimmed do down to the 12 1/2 size it will look absolutely perfect! Your block makes me think of a garden. Sunshine, water and flowers ..... All in rows. I really like your block! And I agree with Tallpines - thing is, it's just like making a scrap quilt. You can use what you think are the most awful fabrics or combination of colours (and I stress what you think), but when put together with all the other fabrics, everything fits just beautifully. I really like the diagonal rows as well - you were the only one to think of that idea. So stop that kind of talk immediately motdaugrnds - all the blocks are truly wonderful - made even more so by the spirit of friendship with which they were made.

It looks great and what you call the "ugliest"...I made a similar one, same design, diff colors to go in the opposite corner. I REALLY need to get this picture thing going...it turned out cute. I am going to have it quilted. I have a friend who does many for me and very inexpensive.

I think all the blocks are wonderful - individually they have their own statement but I think when they are put together, they each contribute their single voices to make a choir of a quilt. DW, thanks for keeping us updated and wow, you got the top together FAST! Can't wait to see it.

motdaugrnds, your block is so NOT ugly. You did a great job, and putting the extra wide border on it was a brilliant idea. I bet your block was the easiest for dw to trim to size because there was so much wiggle room in that border.

motdaugrnds, I liked your block. I thought you did a good job on those diagonal stripes. That is really not easy to accomplish!
