I made the last three blocks for the Marcia Derse fabric Gridlock quilt top. Now I have to make the decision whether I am going to add a narrow strip into any of the 4.5" strips in the blocks. The bottom strip on all 4 of the blocks on the left side is a full 4.5" strip with no narrow strips breaking it up. There are 7 more blocks like that scattered through the other 4 columns. I moved several of the 36 patch blocks to new positions. I'm happy with all but the middle block in the second horizontal row. I don't hate the block but might consider changing a couple strips in it.
I found a new setting on my camera that I think works better for high contrast areas in my quilts. I changed it from auto to Program and then went into the menu and turned on the Contrast feature from OFF to Auto. I'm using a Canon Powershot SX150. The camera before this one was purchased in 2008. I'm guessing this one was probably purchased between 2012 and 2014.

it looks really good I like the yellow that is scattered throughout
I love this quilt and it will be pretty whether you add the narrow strips or not.
What a grand creation this has become. Will check tomorrow to see if your narrow strip happens or not.

Looking good! I liked the hawk picture too.

This quilt is so gorgeous Wanda! It just gets better and better with each block you've added. I might have to give this pattern a try. Looks like a fun one to experiment with.
I was thinking of you yesterday while I was playing with a piece of MD fabric. I like all of your blocks, but tend to agree with you on that particular block. This is looking really great!
