You will *really* be sick of these fabrics when you're done, no? I see someone already mentioned the one block that has two rails turned backward. I wouldn't have noticed without your mention.

I did that in my black and white log cabin (http://gariquilts.blogspot.com/2009/04/isnt-this-looking-good-i-have-gotten.html) and was thrilled with the effect. Of course I didn't quilt it with a panto so I didn't have to worry about them. I love the little piping.

Piping with no piping? Flange? Insert? I think if I used it in a block, I might just stitch it down, and then quilt as usual. That way, you know its going to go ONE way: FLAT. I have only used it by the binding. I love the pop of red! Oh I love this stuff…but I can never figure out what to CALL it! Piping with no piping? Flange? Insert?

I think it would look really good with a black binding with red piping. Bindings with piping is my favorite way to finish a quilt off. If this quilt top needs a home... let me know ;-) I really liked it before but love it with the red. I think it would look really good with a black binding with red piping.

I saw two blocks in the lower left that look like they need to be rotated. Hope you catch them both before it's too late!

Yes, I use my camera all the time now to see my mistakes, and I also like to use my red value finder lens. It helps too not only see mistake with turning the blocks, but also values of light/med/dark which I frequently don't notice working on projects.

I use the camera's eye often to check placement of blocks when my quilt buddy and I are doing our D9P quilts. It's amazing what you can see through the camera's eye! Merry, Merry Christmas!

I hope I will remember this as something to try for a quilt that I'm not loving and might need a splash of something. I love your piping idea…it adds a lot of interest in this quilt.
