The Road Less Traveled: Row 7 - Block # 2

It still seems strange to be making such 'big' blocks. The six blocks in Row 7 finish at 8 3/4" square and 9 1/4" unfinished... lucky for me, my blocks are these measurements. Whew! That's a relief. lol. Here is block # 2 of Row 7:Time to switch gears for a day or two. The weekly meeting of our CWD quilt class is tomorrow, so I better get a block or two finished and then pack the car for Monday's trip.
More later. . . thank you for stopping by,
Hugs,
Cyn;-)
PS: Do you think the 4 little blue-lavender squares look out of place in this block?? I was trying to repeat some of the blue from the fussy-cut red square in the center, but maybe the final Red HSTs [in the corners] should have been a print with a mix of Red & Blue???

I think they look great - are you using some of the lavender in another part of the quilt? just as a little accent like you have here?
Great color choices!

I think they look great too. I'd also use some of the lavender in an other part of the quilt...sort of as a surprise. I love doing that in a quilt. Great job!!
