The center of this quilt is beautiful but you have certainly enhanced that beauty.  Congrats on a finished UFO top.

I'm looking at the left edge, not sure if there is a problem or not because I can't see the pattern.  The other edges are all the same for their 1/4 of the quilt but the second from the to and bottom are different.  I love the pattern.  It's a lot of HSTs!

I looked at that side of Dee’s quilt also!  But, I think it is the optical illusion.   When you look at the opposite side you see the triangles like that.   You have to start at the pinwheel center and follow the print or non print out to the side of each row….

hard to explain without pointing at it!

you are correct, you have to look in wedges rather than quadrants.   The seam in the diamonds goes either all up and down or side to side in each wedge.  I finally had to just check those seams to figure it out.

Such a happy quilt!  And what an accomplishment!  That's a lot of EPP - a lot of time spent hand piecing.  I really like it.

Just beautiful!  That's a lot of hexagons - do you know about how many it took!  All I know, is it's a lot.  I'm working on hexagons right now and it's taking "forever" to make them into a quilt.  Then you enhanced it even further with that pretty applique border.  It's amazing!

Funny that they all come out alike but that one side.  It's a beautiful quilt.  I might not have even noticed that if I wasn't looking after your post.  See you in a couple days.

I am happy to say that finished the "Hubris 2" EPP clamshell top that I brought for a show-n-tell to the Reteat.

This time the EPP clamshells were PROPERLY stitched together ... MUCH better (duh!) than the first version (which I am still working on).  I finished 99.9% of the vine & leaves applique on the road trip to Phoenix and  worked on prepping the 3/4" hexies for the flower applique around the border while at the Retreat.

I completed all the hexie flowers just tonight .. so .. YAY!   Another top is done.     I'm rather pleased with the way this one looks and turned out.
