This technique kicked my butt, Marilynn! I must have tried it 5 times before I came out with a decent piece. I was hoping it would look like the fields on a farm. Not thrilled with what I ended up with, but it is what it is

Oh good, I am so glad someone else found it difficult too. Not that I'm glad you did - I just felt so stupid that I did because it looked easy! I think you got a great patchwork field effect - and your darling little pig reminds me of Wilbur in Charlotte's Web.

Holly, I think it looks great. Even before reading your description, I was thinking that it looked like the fields from the air.That is such a cute little pig.
