Here's an idea of what your quilt would look like! I have also seen this one done as a patchwork quilt, and a wonderful light and dark pattern emerges that way. To do one as a patchwork, just remember to have light fabrics pointing in SW to NE and dark fabrics pointing in SE to NW... Have fun with this one!! :o) and as always... HAPPY QUILTING! Marcia :o) Here's one that Deb made! Colleen's! Beth's!
