LCQA Block 5

Well, I procrastinated, but I got it done.  I finished Block 5 of the Layer Cake Quilt-Along last night.  I thought it was a fun block to make, but I just don't have the differentiation in my fabrics that others do.  I guess it is because the graphics are so large.  I love the fabric and the patterns, but I have learned that choosing fabric makes a huge difference, depending on the pattern you will be using.  With a quilt-along you don't have the luxury of knowing how large or small the cut pieces will be, so it is just hit-or-miss, i guess.  Overall, I am pleased with how the blocks have turned out so far.

And the quilt-along has been a lot of fun!!

Happy Quilting, ;)
