In working with my "baby quilt" Inkscape drawing more, I realized that I had an element that was not quite right.
Here's the original image. I realized that the diamond centers in mid sashing was not quite right.
I changed (easily) a couple of elements note below and created a more harmonious design.
And, my final design (after much futzing/stumbling about).
I did a complete takeoff, though I realized that my wandering eye to a finished v. a cut size caused me to become friendly with my Havil seam ripper. Check twice! Measure twice! Sew Once! Avoid Unsewing!!!!!
When I complete the quilt, I will take a picture of it. I will also post the blocks, measurements and take offs if any want to give this a try. This project provided me with twofold benefits: (1) I was able to learn essential elements of Inkscape to allow me to understand in a structured way how to use the program; and (2) helped me understand the organic creation of quilt blocks AND their interplay.
