This isn't the greatest photo, but it gives you an idea of where I am going with this fabric. Right now I am just working on making the cube blocks which consists of three diamonds of light, medium and dark values. There is not a huge contrast there, but I think it does its job for the main part. I received the panels with the fat quarter pack and it has taken me the longest time to figure out how I would incorporate them into the quilt, if indeed I would. At the moment I am thinking that I will order a few more panels to go around the entire border as you can sort of see in this photo. I am not sure, I am still thinking about it. I just like that they depict farm scenes which would work so well around here!

ReplyDeleteGreat quilt! Welcome to the Q4P quilt blog ring. Nice to meet a new blogger.
ReplyDeleteYou didn't muck around! Are you sewing this quilt by machine?
ReplyDeleteLove your blocks! I've always thought this was an intimidating pattern with all the inset seams - same question as Jenni above about hand or machine?
ReplyDeleteDefinitely by machine. So far no problems with the inset seams, but we will see how it goes when I have to do the long strips!
ReplyDeleteThis is fabulous! Love the diamonds!
ReplyDeleteyour quilt is going to be wonderful!
ReplyDeleteLove it, I really like hopw you used the fabrics - stripes all on one side, etc.
ReplyDeleteI love the panels around the edge. I whole-heartedly support using novelties as borders!
ReplyDeleteLooks great! I love the panels; I think it works nicely overall. That is such a fun line, no?
