NEW DIRECTION

I have decided that the cornerstones were just too fiddly for me to juggle around!!
                                       [ After cutting a ga-zillion 1.5" squares...;0000]

So I  took Lizzy's advice and am going to make a Chinese Coins set,
 out  of these recalcitrant scrappy red/pink blocks....

Adding a white bottom sashing and stacking them up with a dark green strip
in between...thanks Terri  [click to visit]
for that color suggestion--now it will really
be a Christmas quilt...;)))

I feel much more comfortable with this...there is enough stress abounding
this time of year--ya think?
