I finished the four central setting blocks for this Christmas quilt. I took the picture just now and it was a little dark, like the last one I posted. So I brightened it up to show the fabrics a little closer to reality.
I've pieced the diagonal rows. For the photo, I overlapped the seam allowances (where I will sew the rows together) in order to show the circle created by the Glorified Nine Patch blocks. Sewing these curves in a nine inch block was nice and easy.
I thought I knew what I was going to do in the setting triangles. But I'm re-thinking my design. I had not originally planned on open spaces for fancy quilting. But maybe I really want fancy quilting after all.

It just keeps getting better! Love the white created....so bright!
Looking at your project in photo form really does help in the decision making process. Oh for sure there needs to be space for some fancy quilting!
Wow, that center "x" created by the white curved pieces really pops out the center and gives it dimension. Of course you need some space to show off some fancy quilting... Why even question that?!
And I don't know if I believe that those curves were really easy...
