I started with this Blooms and Butterflies quilt for little K – hoping she’d use it for a long time. Take it with her to play dates, her grandparents’ and then college. Oh, she is four now. Grin :)
Here is where I am. Finished with the piecing of the fabric, put them together. Added one set of borders.
Now I for the next set, I am stumped
Do I use the “Yellow/Orange on white” which is on the right.. or the “White on yellow/orange”?
The Binding is going to be that dark blue on the right in the below photo. To pick out the blues in the squares.
I am more inclined on the white dominant border (the one on the right) – I think this lets the centre squares pop.
But I would love to hear your suggestion.
What do you think?
What went in
- Sizzix Bigz Die - Flower #2
- Sizzix Bigz Die - Butterfly #3
- Sizzix Bigz Die - Flower Layers & Leaves
- Fabric from Commercial Cottons on Ebrahim Street, parallel Commercial Street
- Sewing machine - Bernette 20. I used the standard Satin Stitch foot for the zigzag appliqué. Will post details on this soon
Thanks for stopping by :)

it is beautiful jaya and the one with bigger polka dots will do
ReplyDeleteHere are my two cents :-).I think you are right about the big polka dots.If I look at just the orange panels,i like the smaller print,but when kept against the blue,I think it will look too busy.Bigger polka dot probably would probably balance everything out.
ReplyDeleteThis is looking so awesome Jaya :) I have so many quilting tutorials bookmarked for the day when I will have the courage to start on such a big sewing project :)
ReplyDeleteMy vote goes to bigger polka dots pattern :)
