    WOW, WOW,WOW...Barbara B. Your quilt is fabulous. To see it all finished is such an inspiration. You truly made it your
    own. Love all your changes in design and fabric choices. Are you already doing secret sewing for next year? I too am doing
    some secret sewing for a quilting friend whose husband passes away while she was on a quilt retreat. Put other things
    on hold for a month while I do my part in a quilt and pieced quilt bag for the quilt for her HelenW

      What a heirloom quilt created for perhaps your granddaughter? Your quilt is beautiful and one of a kind. Looking forward to month 7 bom pattern release and staying current to be ready for TQS bom 2026!

        It is beautiful! My quilting friends love my blocks and the spring fabric colorway that I have on my design wall. I was wondering what month Lynn will be showing us the center big block? Piecefully, Faye in NH

          Faye, the center block is scheduled to be posted on Month 12.

        I almost hate to ask. (Also posted on FB) In the upper left quadrant, there are 3 half-sq trianlge blocks appearing to be using a white and the border fabric. In all the other quadrants, the border fabric appears to be pointed toward the green squares.These 3 look very willy-nilly. Was that a design change you made? I thought this was the OOPS you were speaking of.

          (Also posted on FB) Hope I can get this to work. In the upper left quadrant I see 3 half-sq triangle units made of what appears to be white and the border fabric. In all the other quadrants, the border fabric is pointed toward the green squares. These 3 appear very willy-nilly. Was that a design choice you made? At first I thought this was the error you were going to discuss. I hope this doesn't cause you more grief.

            3rd try. After this I give up. (I also posted on FB) In the upper left quadrant htere are 3 half-sq triangles units appearing to be white and the border fabric. In all the other quadrants, the border fabric of these 3 units point toward the green squares. These 3 appear to be willy-nilly. Just wondering if this was a design choice you made? Hope this doesn't cause you more grief.

              Thanks, Pat. I saw your post first on my blog. You are correct, those are turned wonky too. More in-sewing in my future.

              Too bad I felt the need to provide several “what not to do” teachable moments.

              Thank you for letting me know.

            Barb there is one more error or maybe you wanted the diagonal to be different. On the right picture above at the bottom left quadrant your diagonal triangles are not facing in.

              Barb,
              I hadn't read the above comments. That is the same thing I was saying!
              No need to comment. You got it!!
