I'm liking it better!

Yesterday's post was about my struggles with a scrappy Hunter Star quilt top. After a lot of anguish (yes, anxiety, anger and various other unhappy words!) I finally got to a stage where I was happier with how it was going.

After lots of rearranging, and more blocks made, here is how it looks today






It's on the wall in my bedroom, and I can lie in bed and see where there is too much of one colour and make the changes. I'm going to have to number every half block, cause I don't think I'd have the patience to set it all out again from the beginning!

This is 36 squares, I'm planning on 90. Well, it's a start!

Lots to look at there!

Till next time,

    It's absolutely beautiful! These are the colors I plan to use for a winding ways quilt if I ever get up the nerve to start on it.

    I also take detailed pictures of my "final" layouts (in addition to numbering) just in case! I'm glad that you are liking it more... it's stunning.
