Unlike the mystery quilt, you get to see an example of the finished product up front. They're are several alternative finishes though.

Your blocks are beautiful, Nina. This will be a fun block-a-month. I've been thinking of doing one, too.

I like the idea of having one little block and one big one. Might join this one. I like sampler quilts.
ReplyDeleteI love the look of the finished quilt, it looks a fun BOM. Your colours seem perfect.
