Uh oh
The game of what would you do? is big fun. I really enjoyed playing and the
whole thread should be required reading for everybody that can possibly scrape up the time to consider every answer. Now. As you to your question. I love your block. I do dearly love it. Tell us about it. Where does it come from and how difficult was it to do? I don't have a clue what you need to do next but I surely do enjoy looking at your block. Polly "Terri" wrote in message ... Does anyone feel up to another game of what would you do? This isn't exactly the effect the pattern called for but I found as I turned it around that I kind of liked the the way this looks: http://www.home.earthlink.net/~dogsn...ellowBlack.jpg My problem is, I don't have any idea how to proceed from this point using the same three colors. Tumbling blocks come to mind, but also maybe more of the same diamond effects? I'm kind of stumped and this is the _first_ diamond pattern I've ever done so I'm hesitant to get too complicated of a pattern going. The block is rather large, @ 19" square once it's sewn together so I'm afraid it will look silly I repeat it as it's only going to be a lap size quilt and there'd only be room for no more than 4 of these on it. I'm very open to suggestions as to what you would do next with this. -- Life's journey is not to arrive at the grave safely in a well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "...holy ****...what a ride!" |

Me too, I have to put a great deal of thought to this kind of thing. I usually will lay the pieces on the floor and pretend I am working a big jigsaw puzzle adding scraps here and there until it develops into something. the block is beautiful to be sure. I love her colors too. julia |
