            I think that all the good superlatives have already been used, I love how different your quilt has come out from the original idea, positively a 'modern quilt look' going on there - there is no escape we definitely want that one in the book :wink:

                    I've got some reels!
                    and starting to play with layout....
                    that's half of what I need to make, but I need to ge back to the drawing board to work out the maths for my layout changes, particularly for the border, before I start slicing some of them narrower, which I think I still will do, but not necessarily all of them.... decisions, decisions :roll:

                        Looking great Rosemary. Good luck with the layout. I look forward to seeing what you do with them.

                          Wow! Such creativity brewing here in the last few weeks!! LOVE IT!!

                          Kathy, I am smitten by your modern take on the reels. And I see mine there! First one on the top left row - turquoise!!

                          Rosemary, your reels are looking so pretty, all marching in their rows. Can't wait to see the border!

                          My reels are still marinating... maybe after Xmas they will get a chance to come out and play...

                            I see that you are making reels of thread a la the original idea. Do you have a layout in mind yet?

                              Michelle, so glad you could recognize your block, i led off with a bang! I love turquoise so that must have been the first one my
                              eye hit on.

                              It's fun using a block that invites so many approaches to it. I must have 30 different designs in electric quilt, trying lots of things out.

                              Good thing that when fabric marinates, it doesn't go bad

                                Well, I've lost the points off the ends of my reels, and I am thinking of changing the layout of the the centre reels from the original plan to something similar to the second picture. And there is the coffee cup & chaos butterfly to add in as well :wink: Also now I have some reels made up I am wondering about changing the border a bit, but it needs plotting out on paper to check sizes etc..
