I believe you have an inkling

Looks seamless. Sewing may not be your passion, but you certainly did a great job. So much can be done with narrow bands.  Love the way you have mirrored your patterns.

YAY!

These are so fun!  I just went and got the pattern from Laverne's AMAZING blog.  I am excited to try what you did there with the alternating set of colours in the center panel.  Very cool.
