I have the A strips finished and one G strip (outside edges of large quilt). I'm cutting "white" and it's going to be very close as to whether or not I have enough. I may not, although I have a teeny bit of blue left.
Which quilt do you want first to quilt? The rose window, the large quilt, or pieces thereof, or one of the narrow quilts? I've stopped working on the rose window for now, as it was so meticulous, and I needed to do something easier for a while.

I'm honored to work with an artist - one who can paint and create quilt designs. I've had 7 years of art and can't really paint. I can design and I can piece really well. But I'm not a good quilter or artist. That's why it's such a treat to work with Tracy.
Hmm. Sounds like a good formula for finding a husband. Wish I knew that 30 years ago.

I am so fortunate to be working with my good friend, Jean. She doesn't make me feel like I have to 'measure up' to her art, she's always willing to offer suggestions when I ask for them, and as we're working together-but-separately on this project, we're realizing how well we complement one another.
I am very fortunate, indeed.

I have no preference on what quilt is finished first, quilting-wise, except the rose window *does* need to have a frame built for it.
You know, don't you, that you're going to come to a screeching halt on the large (center) quilt if Steve's not done.
And about your earlier question about if I'm going to be bent outta shape if I don't "get to" sew black leading? Nah. Though I WILL feel guilty if all I end up doing is Steve and cutting one kaleidoscope block.

Okay, you won't feel too bad after you quilt them all!
Here's a couple of pics so you can see how things are laying out together.
The newest strip is stargazer blocks with leading.
