Susan: December Reveal/2013 Block Layout
And I'm back! No wonder I couldn't get it to work. AT&T was 26 hours late doing their part! But all is well now, so here are the pictures of the final block seams, followed by the way I think they'll go together. Sorry they are a little fuzzy. I took them in the sunlight and didn't adjust correctly.

Better than the Rose Parade even, I'll bet!
Fantastic Collection!
Are you sure you don't want to balance out the blue blocks in the layout though?
I agree that the layout may need some massaging. Your 2 red blocks with the gold arrows (triangles) are pointing the eye off the surface. You might switch those so they point inward.
Great December block! I really like your stars on the top and the blue 'ferns' on the right.
I was thinking that it would look great having the blue blocks in the four corners, because having them all together draws my eye away from the red ones. Just a thought.......
Positive. It's a flag! =)
See answer above. This is how I planned it from the start.
We'll see. I was hoping that would help with the waving in the breeze idea. I'll think about that, try it, take photos, see if I like it better.
Not everything worked exactly the way I thought it would, but overall, I'm pleased. My plan was to have it look like a flag. I thought shifting the reds would give it more of a waving flag look, and I don't think it does, but I like it anyway. It was a tough year, not using anything really feminine. I wanted to so many times! Now that it's finished, I'm mainly pleased with it, though. Once the blocks are trimmed, it will be better, too. There are seams I love and seams I regret, but overall, it was an interesting experience.
If you are pleased, then I am pleased! :-))
I get the flag idea and think you have created a unique quilt. Is it destined for the wall or a bed. Personally I would love it for the wall.
