So here's the final design. I bought the fabric last weekend at Ready to Sew because they had all fabric 20% off. I couldn't resist. Rich had been very apprehensive at the idea of red and white in our room. I don't know why, but I decided it wasn't worth arguing over. I'll make another red and white quilt for my studio or something. I also changed the sashing to make it easier if we don't piece it perfectly. I tested the paper piecing this morning and it will be nice and easy to work with. Opinions?
