I tried several things by moving the blocks around and using several different fabrics.
Nothing seemed to be working. I am not liking it still.
Kinda decided to just do a plain border. But like Julie, I don't really like square quilts. So I need to thing about what I can put on the two ends to make it not-square.
But I liked the blocks.
Ahhhh......much better. I just wasn't feeling them on the fish quilt.
This is where it is now. 50 inches wide and needs a top an bottom border.
And I will have another top to add to the pile. Hey, Suzette, I think it is a plot to boost you way out to the front. Patty is sick, and I keep making tops. You have all the advantage now, girlfriend!
Sigh.....at least I am using fabric!
yep, good choice. Try using those yellow parts with something lower contrast - i think the yellow and the dark blue just weren't playing nicely.
ReplyDeleteLove the new quilt, but what to do with the fish? I like the blue you have on the right side. Did the doxies get adopted together?
ReplyDeleteMUCH better plan for the blocks. I'm not a real fishy person so IF I were to use those yellow fish pieces, I'd be tempted to line them up in 3-4 columns as the sashing strips for a chinese coins style comfort or kids quilt.
ReplyDeleteGood girl! Go with your gut, always.
