So today!
We are supposed to post of Fabric Choices.
I had a color scheme in mind - But Middle Bit came and said - I really think you should use this jelly roll... and who is to argue with your child?
After pulling the whole Jelly Roll apart - we took 3 of the strips and removed them - they were just too white - and that way - I could use a Cream for the background. I think it will be pretty cool - and Middle Bit has put a claim to it. He may forfeit that claim as the quilt goes on - but at this moment.... Ha ha
If you are stitching along - go link up at Busy Hands and let us see what you chose!!
That's a cool pattern!! I like Middle Bit's design choices. Since he helped with that portion of the quilt process, he SHOULD be allowed to keep it! (IF he still wants it when it's done.) After all, he will need SOMETHING to remember you by when he heads off to college in the fall. :o))
ReplyDeleteGood colours. I've picked mine as well. Guess I need to do a blog post LOL
ReplyDeleteI'm thinkin' Middle Bit had ulterior motives from the beginning. Very masculine in appearance. And as you are outvoted 4 to 1........ well, you get the fun part and he gets the results. And he wouldn't want to admit maybe he needs a little bit of mom while he is gone.
ReplyDeleteLovely set of fabric strips! I wonder who will get their hands on the finished quilt? :-D I'm joining in the QAL too - using fat quarters rather than a jelly roll.
ReplyDeleteGreat to have you quilting along with us. It will be great to see JRW in masculine fabrics!
ReplyDeleteI've also joined the Quilt-Along and can't wait to see what all create with all the different fabrics..
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, this should turn out beautifully!!! Love your color choices.
