Nine Patch & Drunkard's Path
This decorates the pinwheels without overpowering them.
I think this works too. I'm off to a good start.
This works but it feels a bit timid to me today. But I might feel different about it some other day.
This might actually work in real life. But I am worried about the background competing with the main image. I'm getting timid again.
This is much less messy. I like the stronger contrast this gives.
This adds another kind of contrast and has a calming effect. I'm going to leave it like this.
Nice, Wayne. I like the colored thread... and as you say, it often works in life even if it seems scarey in the sketch. Go for it!

ReplyDeleteI always like the idea of using colored thread to emphasize the quilting. It works best when the quilting works well with the piecing.
I like the horizontal line option along with the red thread in the center. . .looks like a winner to me!

ReplyDeleteI'm glad you like it. It should prove interesting to try and sew.
I like how you approach things - "What if?"

ReplyDeleteActually I approach design by asking three very natural questions: What if? Do I like it? and Why? The design process consists of asking these questions over and over until I find something I want to make.
