Since I couldn't work on that I cut the binding for the Bento Box quilt and sewed it on last night.
I will have my 100,000th visitor this morning. If I can figure out who you are, I may send you some little treat. Watch for a second post today.

Plan B
Now I know why I didn't cut the last blocks for yesterday's problem quilt. The pieces that I have left over are not quite big enough to cut the squares in the size that I need. So Plan B will be to cut new centers for the 12 blocks that are swirling in the wrong direction and they can probably be used in the 4 corners of the quilt without being noticed too much.

I love the colors on this quilt! I love batiks - I really need to get rid of some of my old stash and start to just collect batiks seeing as they are my favorites. Now that I have found your blog I will have to bookmark it and look at it some more.

Congrats on 100,000 visitors! That's exciting!
Wow, 100,000. That is something. Your quilt in your previous post will be lovely regardless. I love your selection of fabrics.
I love the binding for your Bento Box quilt. I actually sewed yesterday and made some more strata for my "Fabulous" Quilt. Only 5 more strata to go to complete the blocks.
I can't believe you are going to have 100,000 visitors! Amazing!!
Hi Wanda, About the BENTO Box quilt--is there a book with this pattern? I need a HS grad gift for gr-daughter,she's studying Japanese. Will use many oriental fabrics,ect--thanks for your tremendous help--everyday! Paulette in VA.
Paulette, I have no way to contact you. the Bento box is a pattern by Tracie Brookshire.
It's me! It's me! I've made one Bento Box out of Daiwabo Taupes and would like to make another from batiks. Yours is gorgeous.
I declare - the use of color totally blows me away. I can barely wait to see it completed!!
I agree with Suzan. All your creations are amazing. And that's why you have so many visitors on your blog!
I love your batik quilts!! They are stunning :)
Are you SURE you don't want to have all of us over for tea and batiks? I am SO excited to see your batik Bento Box bound and tossed over a chair... I have the pattern and have picked it up/put it down so many times... SO, as I cut the batiks for our king bed quilt, I am going to cut strips for a Bento, too... just GOTTA do it this coming year. :-)
There you go again...making lemonade out of lemons! Everything happens for a reason...your "errors" just turn the project into something different. You are AWESOME! Hope you find your 100,000 visitor..truly a milestone.
I too love the binding on your Bento Box quilt. The bindings are always the "frosting on the cake" I think.
100,000th visitor ! ! ! So great to have such a grand following.

Another gorgeous creation! That is so rich looking with all those glorious batiks! Can't wait to see the finished quilt!
I think everyone else already said it..but --I think that quilt is wonderful. The rich vibrant colors make my heart sing and dance.
Hi Wanda
Your quilt is positively glowing in the photo! Is it the camera? the lighting? the batiks that never take a bad photo?
Congrats on 100,000 visits. How long have you done your blog? I have only visited in the past year or so, but I'm just starting to get a clue about blogs.
