Hello to all of you visiting from Quilt Story! Thank you so much to Heather and Megan for featuring my Zig Zag Friends quilt today! What a treat for me.
The original post didn't show the full quilt. I went back to look for one, and it seems I never took one! I guess no one was home to hold it up that day.
Moving on to our regularly scheduled WIP Wednesday post...
It was not a terribly productive week, quilt-wise. Girl Scout cookie season is in full swing, so there's not much time to do anything else.
Finished: I love these bee blocks that I sent to Kelleigh for the Modern Stash Bee.
In Progress: When I counted up all the Ninigret Quilter's raffle quilt units, I realized I was short. I made more crazy stars and star points and started laying it out last night. I don't have a design wall- I use a flannel backed plastic table cloth on the living room floor. If I need to move it, it can be rolled up and the pieces stay in place.
This will be a big quilt, so I can only lay out a quarter at a time. Here's the top left quadrant.
Plan A |
After I had it set out as I had planned, I thought it might be interesting to switch around the small stars. Interesting, yes, but do we like it better?
Plan B |
My Facebook friends like Plan A better. What say you, blogland?
On Hold: The rest of my WIP list is waiting for me to finish the raffle quilt. You can see it on my WIP page and in my Threadbias studio. I want to love Treadbias, but I haven't completely figured it out yet.
Thanks for stopping by! Now hop on over to Freshly Pieced for more WIP Wednesday inspiration.
Hi! I'm happy to find your lovely blog and beautiful work! This quilt is so adorable! I love also the star blocks and those blue star blocks earlier!
ReplyDeleteI like Plan B! LOL
ReplyDeleteAnd your bee blocks are just amazing! Loved reading about the Zig Zag quilt on Freshly Pieced!
Congrats on the feature, Tina!! And I love your blocks....nice!
ReplyDeleteI found your lovely zig zag quilt on Quilt Story and I'm so impressed! It is just lovely, and the way you paired so many designers' fabrics blows me away. I aspire to do that. :)
ReplyDeleteOh, and I vote for plan B quilt as well, but both arrangements are so nice.
Saw your zig zag quilt on Quilt story today and it's beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI like plan A too.
ReplyDeleteI like both but Plan B gets my vote. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteIt's a gorgeous zig zag quilt. I'm glad I read their blog post this morning.
ReplyDeleteI just had to click on these beautiful blue stars. For the upper left quadrant of a quilt, I think I personally prefer Plan A, although either would work well ... JMHO Usually when I ask opinions, I end up listening to my own quilty muse and I always am happy with the finished quilt.
ReplyDeleteLove the bright zig zag!
Thanks for sharing ... :) Pat
I love all the projects you have going on!
ReplyDeleteI like plan B better, but I love how you have so much movement in either version.
