Ok, give me a week or two to see how work is going to settle down (or not!) and I will let you know. Is it a 12 inch block we are making?

Those colours are so effective @Lowena - that batik is just like fire, and the black really accentuates it.  Lovely!
I might look as though I'm talking to you, but inside my head I'm sewing.

Block from @Pearl  mark 2. Still slightly small but everything can be tweaked in time.

That is stunning

and has given me an idea for a multiplication quilt ... using the black in the middle of the coloured 'stars' to depict ... x,+, -, dividing sign, % ! etc etc

Interesting ... some bits would need to be appliqued, such as the dots of the dividing sign, but could be very stylish
