I have to admit that your first picture of the blocks didn't really appeal to me, but the addition of the coping strips and the checkerboard sashings really bring those blocks to life for me. I really love that last picture! I hope that you have enough of the red & white fabrics, but know that you will come up with something clever if you don't. And I hope that you end up enjoying this quilt!Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05752223838072554416noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3721859852194405595.post-66537886573526441142016-06-17T05:29:18.414-07:002016-06-17T05:29:18.414-07:00Oh no!

Maybe you can donate the quilt, or auction and donate the money, for disaster relief somewhere. Or maybe after all those red & white squares, happier memories will prevail! It certainly is going to be lovely. :DMonicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01596185668087389269noreply@blogger.com
