I thought about the ideas that you all had from yesterday (thank you for pulling me out of my mini-meltdown with good ideas!), and decided to lay the blocks out again on Kona White and Charcoal.  I also liked the idea of Navy as well, but I noticed that too many of the blocks have dark blue in them and it blended in too much.  I thought the Charcoal provided a dark color with enough of a difference from the dark blues.<\/p>\n<p>But, which to choose now?

I&#8217;m not sold on the placement of the blocks.  I&#8217;m not even sold on keeping all of these blocks in.  Heck, I might add more blocks and turn it into a bigger quilt.  I just kept them in the same placement as yesterday for consistency.<\/p>\n<p>2. I&#8217;m still thinking about adding single 2 inch squares in the corner of the sashing.  (Take a look at the picture in the Hip To Piece Squares banner&#8211;that&#8217;s what I&#8217;m describing.)  I&#8217;m thinking about this, but not completely sold yet.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m determined to make this thing work.  I&#8217;m going to finish it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Okay, I need opinions once again.
