In fact, I'm skipping ahead a bit - she finished one called the "Spinning Star," while I'm working on the "Twirling Star" simply because I had a clearer vision of the fabric choices for it. That is, for two of the fabrics.
Option 1 |
Option 2 |
Option 3 |
I'm stuck on choosing the right medium pink. The first option is bright, vivid pink - perhaps too bright. The second might not have enough contrast. The third has a wide stripe that could mean a subtle variation in the points that would emphasize the twirling of the block. It's actually a reclaimed pillowcase that I'm also contemplating using as a backing for my zigzag wall hanging quit:
The purple will be the binding - I'm going for a very narrow 1/4" binding. I'm not sure how I feel about the stripes with the zigzags, but then again, it'll be against the wall and nobody will see it anyway!
Now if I could just stop dithering and get something finished....

ReplyDeleteI like the third option the best color-wise, but with the stripes you may have to do some careful cutting. The second option doesn't have enough contrast and the whole square looks a little dark. The first option is ok, maybe a little bright, though.
