I’ve been fiddling with color combinations. I pieced the bottom right one in a flash and feel like it is a bit bright and clear; my usual color choice. The pales in the double nine patches are grayer…
Instead of bending over the wheels on the floor, I finally laid the quilt pieces on the design wall. You actually can see in this photo, that I chose a warm colored batik for the background squares. I’m all about adding as much color and texture as possible, even if I am using a more subtle color scheme than usual. I am still not sure about the upper left wheel…
And it appears that I mindlessly pieced way too many squares before I chose the quilt design! I think they will make a nice border. I am enjoying these colors so I’m happy to piece more of them for the connector squares.
Can’t wait to see this finished, Deb!
Me too. (And thanks) now that Summer is slowing down here I will have more time to be indoors.
Progressing nicely!
Thanks Paige!
This is so effective! The colors aren’t the sort that I’m usually drawn to, yet I love them here!
I agree. They are duller or greyer than I usually use. I think it’s why I’m having a little trouble with the wheels.
