I tried a couple of layouts on my design wall to see if I would want to make one of these quilts for a comfort quilt and came up with a couple of possibilities. I like the big diamond blocks, but it is asymmetrical and cut off. The blocks are 12 1/2" unfinished. Now, I have to pack this all up for Carole and see if I can find a backing to go with it.

Thirty blocks up, thirty blocks down
I was able to finish all 30 blocks for the California Thomas fire quilts for Carole. Although I downloaded the pattern block, there is no pattern for how the quilt goes together. When I looked at the black and white pattern, I thought half of the blocks were to be light and half dark so that is how I pulled my fabrics. However, when I tried to find quilts online already assembled, the values and colors were sort of scrambled. Oh well, all my blocks go together.

I was wondering how they might go together. Thanks for the pictures.
Go girl! You did a great job. Love the first layout:)
I just found this block pattern yesterday and really like it. The layout possibilities are all so fun. How wonderful that you made so many blocks.
ooo, Yeah. I like the playfulness of your blocks and all the designs they lend themselves to!
Great - love the bottom layout!
You certainly made quick work of those blocks!! BTW... They are gorgeous!
They look great all together! You did a great job with color selection.
