Hasn't it been fun to see the different looks of the same patters in different fabrics?

Now here is another take....

Katy made this center medallion block and her SAL blocks will line up all around it! Gorgeous Huh?

Wow all of these are so unique in their own way. I love Katy's medalion block just checking though did she mean for the top and bottom green/white HST to be turned that way? Just checking before she sews it all together :) All of them are beautiful :)

It is so nice to have a tall person in my house to hold my quilts for me! Those are Brennen's feet!

Thought you'd like to see how great the black sashing turned out! Thanks Velda for the super idea!

Oh Mary the black makes all your colors pop gorgeous.

Katy I love it like that it drew my attention to the center like it was pointing my eye 👁 there 🥰 then I saw the sides and thought oh no lol because trust me lately I have turned a few blocks and Jack and I were a steady couple for a bit 😂😂

Here is my sew-along top all together, ready to quilt. By adding 5 inch piano key orders It brought the overall measurements up to 68 1/2 in. Square.

MaryQ: I love the black sashing, too. Wow!

Maryz: Your top is gorgeous, too. I love your piano key border. It's perfect for your quilt.

I bought my sashing and cornerstone fabric the other day at my little rural quilt fabric store. I was searching for a tone on tone of black, but he didn't have anything even in a tiny print black. But then my eye glanced over at a very dark navy piece that speaks solid, but isn't.
And found a neat gray piece that has almost looks like stucco siding. Now I am looking forward to assembly of mine. Might explore your idea of piano key border to use up more scraps. Thanks both of you for inspiration.
