I believe the blocks are brighter than they really are. The sashing will quiet the quilt down. Thankfully my lqs had a whole bolt of caroline's collection (the pale green} which I didn't buy enough of last fall. She is selling fabric for nine dollars a yard.
All of your blocks are lovely. I am just dyeing to start putting together. Tess where are week 21 blocks LOL ps I love paper piecing since a friend of mine got me hooked.

I have two done and planned on working on that third one tonight but this root canal has knocked me down. Will post as soon as I get them all done.

I really had a hard time with the wreath one. Y-seams are continuing to be a problem for me. I look at everyone elses pictures and yours all look so perfect. What am I doing wrong.
I have watched every y-seem you-tube there is. I have tried other ways and they still turn out crappy.

Vicky they look great, not sure where you think they look bad. I too hate those y seams. Its like all but the last one go together well for me and that last one sticks out longer or off. Weird huh. They are beautiful just sit back and let out a "its done" breath and get ready for next set. Have you decided how your going to put together yet?

Played with colors and prints. My one block lacks contrast too much pattern but its been fun experimenting :))

Izzy I love you blocks. The strip fabric is great--I like it. Your blocks get better every week.

Everyone's blocks this week are really, really nice.
