Yum!<br /><br />And, yes, I work better close to the deadline as well.

It brings such a great dimension to it. <br /><br />Have you tried debuting different fabrics by laying the blocks out on top of a potential sashing fabric? Take a photo and see how they look to you. I'd try a black along with some other solids and see how it frames the blocks out.

Your ability to create a sense of light, shadow and depth improve with each block.<br /><br />I wouldn't add sashing. Instead use the quilt as you go method and select a bright yellow fabric as the binding strip. If you wanted you could additional embroidery in the binding strip, but I probably wouldn't. A solid yellow would frame each block, give the eye a place to rest and provide a unifying factor, beyond the fiesta colors and edibles. <br /><br />This is going to be a stunning quilt.Gwyned Trefethenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13041159153171283941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-399470355531902312.post-71272468458885431902013-03-08T11:57:42.951-08:002013-03-08T11:57:42.951-08:00Wow!
