Just finished sewing the panel. No more mistakes that had to be taken apart! The stitching went smoothly. What I’m liking when I see it like this is the shading within the background – not too in-your-face. That’s probably because the contrast is strong enough to draw your attention away from the background.

Now to start on a backing. I’ve got to make two more bright blocks to create an on-point vertical row and several background blocks to fill in as triangles. I have two suitable light grey print fabrics that work together. With a wide strip between them they’ll work fine. (The point is to use what I have in my stash!).
