Tonight I was deserted by my family. DH went to bed VERY early and my boys were at a friends house watching movies. It was kind of nice. I didn't have to feel guilty for sewing all night. I got the last two blocks done. 30 12" blocks. Here are the last two.
I couldn't wait to see how they all looked together. I went upstairs and laid them out on my guest bed. The idea that I had originally was to lay out all 15 patterns and then just repeat the same pattern for the second set. That is how I laid it out. I think it might need some tweaking. Sorry for the lousy picture. I had the camera above my head trying to get as much in as I could.
I love how it looks, but this quilt actually took on a life of its own. It isn't like I originally pictured at all. I ended up using the black a lot more than I taught I would for one thing. Next is the sashes and cornerstones. I think that will just set all the blocks off. I got to counting them in my head. 42 cornerstones and 71 sashes. The cornerstones are a solid medium pink. I couldn't find a dark solid. The sashes will be white.
