I'm working hard now: both on the piecing of these circles and on my quilting. Today I pieced another run of squares for the top, bottom and left hand side, so just the right side to go. I'm pretty sure that will be it.
Having said which, I laid it out with a little gap between the existing section and the new bits, so that you could see what I was adding and I kind of like that little gap. Now I'm wondering about finding a fabric to add in there to retain in. This may be too much fiddling about for me - depends entirely when I do it - or may not look that great when I come back to it, but I am pondering.
Need to make that last strip first though.
I like the way this is growing!
ReplyDeleteI think it would look nice with a thin strip to separate those last borders you've done. So close to a finish now!
ReplyDeleteSo close, yes, but those shirt fabrics lighten it up so that I'm thinking maybe...
ReplyDeleteI do like the new bits and tiny bits of yellowy-orange, which I had not noticed before. I wonder why? It's such a nice piece and, though there's lots going on, the monochromatic color scheme is very calming.
I like the look. From the picture I thought you had already added the inner border before I read the blog. It may be fiddley, but worth it.
ReplyDeleteA gap there looks dynamic and would be perfect Kaja! You definitely can take on fiddly and win.
ReplyDeleteVery very beautiful !
ReplyDeleteIt will look so good no matter what you decide. I like the idea of adding some thin strips, it adds an element of surprise that you don't expect. :)
ReplyDeleteSupport for thin inner borders...but it looks quite good without, too. Trust yourself!
ReplyDeleteThe fun is in the fiddling! Fiddle away! This is such a beautiful piece. I look forward to seeing how it ends up.
ReplyDeleteIt's looking good, thanks for sharing progress.
ReplyDeleteI like the little gap, too. Isn't it fun how that came about? It's such a treat to see quilts progress. Thanks for sharing so many steps.
ReplyDeleteLooks great and I like that gap too! A thin solid colour inner border, perhaps?!

I like the gap too. Maybe audition a red or orange there?
ReplyDeleteI love the borders! They look great without the circles. I reckon whether you choose to add a gap or not, the borders will stand out for that reason alone. Looking good :)
