Izzy I decided to start over with new colors. I plan to set the original blocks in a different design---may set the star blocks with a single Irish chain around them. I am making the new star blocks today and hopefully start the chevrons tomorrow. I am liking the second quilt MUCH better. I have to say this does go together fast and I'm enjoying Bonnie's pattern second time too.

Oh my what are you going to do with blocks already made LOL You go girl. I do want to do it again in a purple theme but not right now maybe after I retire )))

Izzy the blocks I already have made are going to be set up with a single Irish chain around them(I think). The chevron blocks maybe I'll rip them apart and turn the chevron 3 1/2" square around and make a star. Still thinking about it. I won't waste the fabric, I plan to make it in to another quilt.
I only got 12 of the new stars completed yesterday. I'm looking forward to see how the second quilt turns out. I wanted to start on the new chevron blocks today, but I had to take the dog to the vet this morning. She got a good report, so that was good.

ok here is a little bit of my lay out. Guess what those rectrangles needed to have two darks not mix of blues she really should of stated that dont you think. But I do like it and will sew it together:) I just wont have the contrast she has in hers. But I do want to do this one again in purple theme eventually on day after I forget how I hated those chevrons LOL

Izzy your quilt is going to be perfect when it's finished. I will agree, I didn't get enough detailed information about color. I've decided I don't understand how to use the paint chips.

As you know I decided to redo mine and I'm still working on it. I think it will much better than the first one. Purple would be great, I love purple.

Always enjoy the pictures. Redtop
