Last night I started working on this quilt again. The bottom horizontal rows are just loose pieces on the design wall and floor. I am making a different size than any listed in the pattern so I wasn't sure how much of each piece I needed. I am constructing the little 3 piece units now that I need to finish the bottom rows. There is also a row of little squares across the top of the quilt so I cut most of them too. I think I just have 2 more squares to cut and then I need to start piecing all of those units. I might switch the blocks in the bottom 2 horizontal rows and see if I like it that way better too. Last chance to try that.

Using the same red print in the vertical rows really makes it look woven. I didn't realize that from the picture yesterday. That is a very cool effect. Glad you had a good time with the art quilters.
Good thing your Art Quilters arrived and hopefully left before that crazy rain, sleet, snow and back to rain storm arrived.
I think you are right about switching out the bottom 2 rows of blocks, since it now looks as though there are 2 rows of the lighter patterned blocks together. It's going to be fabulous no matter what you decide.
Wanda, this is awesome! I love the fabrics and the colors.....they are perfect for this pattern!
Thanks for sharing!!

This piece gets better with every growing row.

I don’t know about changing that last row: I think sharks maybe should be at the bottom! Just kidding.
So unique. Awesome.
What a spiffy design! Glad your group met during the day. The weather was pretty bad last evening. (I was grateful they called off the meeting that was scheduled.)
I like this pattern. The colors are great in it too. Hope you are not getting the newest storm.
I love the fish swimming across in that last row. :-)
That's going to be a stunning quit. It is so interesting how different the two colourways look when you showed them in an earlier post.
Wow that was fast! I’d expected this quilt to grow a lot more slowly, but boom! It’s basically done, you say? I adore it, but am almost always disappointed when you stop. LOL. I have a tendency to make my quilts a size or two bigger than you do. But then, I’m a bigger person myself, so that may have something to do with what I consider a lap quilt, for example.
Regardless of size, this one is a winner! Still looking forward to seeing the completed product.
