Mark's Halloween quilt - sorry for the poor lighting and strange ghosty things at the bottom of this photo.
This is how the quilt is coming along. I would like your advice - do you think I should suggest to Mark that he put a strip between the houses and the blocks? A plain fabric to give the eye a place to rest?
Here:
Or a narrow strip to give the block a border from the row above? I hope to have a good time sewing tonight - and I hope you do also.
Happy Stitching,
Nicey Linda
hmmm. I'm not sure what I'd do. but maybe a border would help the houses stand out. :) such cute fabrics! And I Love the Walking Dead! My husband and I just finished season 2. ;)
ReplyDeleteI think a solid strip in there would really set the houses off better. Fun quilt!
ReplyDeleteI would put a strip in there. You could call the road the houses are on.
ReplyDeleteLooks like it could a strip of plain black in there somewhere to make the prints pop. have a good time tonight, hope you get lots done.
ReplyDeleteI just had the same problem with a Christmas quilt. I really fought it, but when I put at 1" strip between the two areas, the quilt really "woke up" & it is much nicer to look at. Good luck" - Love the fabrics.
ReplyDeleteI think a thin strip would be very beneficial. I love it.
ReplyDeleteI think some sashing around the blocks would be good, as you say to give the eye a place to rest.
