On one hand, one skews cool and one skews warm. On the other hand there is a lot of repetition. I haven&#8217;t changed them because I will use a lot of blocks in the quilt and I am still deciding whether, in the end, anyone will notice or care. I am also thinking about whether or not having some cool and some warm will benefit the look of the project.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Russian Rubix posts<\/span>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Saturday February 22, 2014: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2014\/02\/russian-rubix-colors\/\" target=\"_blank\">Russian Rubix Colors<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Saturday December 7, 2013: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2013\/12\/russian-rubix-center-square-test\/\" target=\"_blank\">Russian Rubix Center Square Test<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Monday October 28, 2013: <a href=\"http:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2013\/10\/russian-rubix-color-choices\/\" target=\"_blank\">Russian Rubix Color Choices<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2013\/10\/russian-rubix-test-blocks\/\" target=\"_blank\">Wednesday October 9, 2013<\/a>: Russian Rubix Test Blocks<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2013\/10\/more-background-drama\/\" target=\"_blank\">Tuesday October 8, 2013<\/a>: More Background Drama<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2013\/10\/russian-rubix-backgrounds\/\" target=\"_blank\">Saturday October 5, 2013<\/a>: Russian Rubix Backgrounds<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/http:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2013\/09\/in-a-clear-space-you-can-see-across-the-room\/\" target=\"_blank\">Saturday September 28, 2013<\/a>: In a Clear Space You Can See Across the Room<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2013\/09\/chosen-colors\/\" target=\"_blank\">Wednesday September 11, 2013<\/a>: Chosen Colors<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2013\/08\/russian-rubix-templates\/\" target=\"_blank\">Thursday August 26, 2013<\/a>: Russian Rubix Templates<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2013\/08\/continuing-to-choose-colors\/\" target=\"_blank\">Tuesday August 20, 2013<\/a>: Continuing to Choose Colors<\/li>\n<li>Susan: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.historyquilter.com\/2013\/08\/history-quilter-podcast-episode-39.html\" target=\"_blank\">Tuesday August 20, 2013<\/a>: History Quilter Podcast Episode 39<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/artquiltmaker.com\/blog\/2013\/07\/russian-rubix\/\" target=\"_blank\">Monday July, 22, 2013<\/a>: Russian Rubix<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In a effort to stay the chaos, I used some of the parts and pieces of the Russian Rubix as leaders and enders in between the Scrapitude project pieces.
