It took a few extra pieces to fill them out. And one re-working, after I rotated a piece in one of those blocks. Someone nicely pointed the error out to me, and then I promptly forgot about it until the quilt was half-done. Fixing a block at that point was challenging, but had to be done.
I played around with custom quilting on this one. I had hoped to play with various relief designs, but my batting wasn't thick enough to give the look I hoped for, so I just went with a more overall fill instead.
The colour on these last photos is pretty bad - it seems to be trade-off I get when I turn off the flash to help accentuate the stitching lines.
Since I'm done in time, I'm linking up with the rest of the party at the PEI Modern Guild blog.
Oh I feel your pain about the turned block. It looks fantastic!!! I love the quilting !!
