It's sewn.......I could have agonized over it longer but I'm happy with it. Two quilts would have been a nice fix too but I guess in the end I wanted a larger piece. It is just a bit under 64" x 80". I haven't pressed it yet so I'll probably show it later when it is pressed and I have done the staystitching. This one is all batiks.
Once I had that top sewn I made 4 more blocks for the improv strip pieced quilt top. I need it off the design wall in the basement so I'll probably start sewing it together today. I wanted to make it one more row longer. It will be 89" long now. I know there are a few blocks shorter than 10" hanging on the bar of the longarm so maybe I can squeeze out another 8" or 9" row like I have at one end of the top on the design wall now.

The spring 16 patch is beautiful!
The top turned out so pretty!
It is so Spring-ey;))) Lovely soft flowery colors--Beautiful work hugs, Julierose
It's lovely and so springlike. Sometimes you just have to go with it since moving just one block can cause other things to need a change. It becomes endless shifting.
16 Patch truly is a work of art, and so lovely created with your pastels. And it tickled me to see the punch of brilliant improv strips.

Your 16 patch is beautiful! You are truly an expert in color value,arrangement and overall eye appeal. You have created another win!!
Pretty sixteen-patch - well done! (despite all the auditioning and rearranging and pondering). I'm looking forward to seeing the improv strip pieced quilt top come together!
