I'm loving the idea of this quilt, but I'm still not sure how it's going to look with my fabrics. I could play it safe and stick to my bins of lights and darks and make a version that's similar to the antique quilt that started this whole thing...and that's tempting! Then I look at some of the wild prints that Bonnie is cutting up and I really want to see where she's going with hers.
This could be the perfect project for me right now. It's just a little bit less mindless than Teenage Daughter's postage stamp quilt, but it doesn't require a lot of decision making as far as fabric placement. As long as I can make up my mind which fabrics to cut to get myself started!
I'm linking up to Design Wall Monday over at Patchwork Times.
Thanks for the heads up about another Bonnie quilt. I like what you've done so far.
ReplyDeleteI still have a pile of spool leaders and Enders to work through and then I plan to switch to the lozenges. I think they look like a lot of fun! I may use a jelly roll for the main part since I don't have such big pieces, but I have tons of small squares for the corners. Your's are looking good--the scrappier the better!
ReplyDeleteIt's looking really effective so far - am sure it'll be lovely when it's finished - I think it has an antique-y feel to it. xCathy
