A batik String Design Wall

I have been playing with the Batik strings that I made out of the leftovers from the 2021 RSC 


I had them on the design wall and I kept staring - so I re arranged them like this:





It was  suggested trying to make it look like a sunset.....

and then I thought - let me try Something else:


I am always drawn to the ones that make a funky pattern - and still


I don't like either.... So - I have them stacked and may just wait until I can make more string blocks in their colorways - and come with something I like.

hmmmmm - maybe some design will pop in my head!!   Until then - I may dig for some more batik strings......


Oh!! Yes - the two people who will get the Red Blocks...

The exploding setting is a good one but maybe put the red ones in a corner (upper right? upper left?) and then go in color order outward. (Does that make sense?)

Wow, red blocks, woo-hoo! I did an assymetrical layout with similar colored blocks in my Nov. 23rd post. Maybe.

I like them both! But I know that feeling if it isn't quite what you want. At any rate they are pretty blocks that will rest quite comfortably till you find just the right layout. :)

Pretty string blocks, have fun playing with them! I'm sure you will find a layout that suit you later, with more blocks.

I like the diagonal layout...
Great start to some cool strings, though!
