It's interesting to hear how the design process can evolve.Heirlooms by Ashton Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09949132555589853690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2957476662384686092.post-83111068947970266922010-09-28T16:08:48.516-07:002010-09-28T16:08:48.516-07:00Looks like you have had an epiphany and changed yo...Looks like you have had an epiphany and changed your course. I love reading about the decision making process. And I can't believe that I just bought a length of that backing fabric that you have shown in your last photo.Elytehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04857438599489754345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2957476662384686092.post-56919960499317234472010-09-28T07:50:36.920-07:002010-09-28T07:50:36.920-07:00I actually don't mind the quilt body itself. ...I actually don't mind the quilt body itself. The colours DO seem to work together, I find it's the border fabric (Jo's bisquits and jam sheep it looks like). The border fabric is competing with the blocks. I would add a light coloured border outside the sashing/cornerstones, then a more generic border. If you feel there is not enough cheddar, you could use corner blocks with the border that have cheddar in them. Bind in the sashing fabric. Even that dark blue stripe (also looks like a Jo) might serve just fine as a border. (JMHO Hee hee). Good luck!<br />HeatherHeatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03031841350937217798noreply@blogger.com
