The pinks and purples
The blues whites and yellows
and the one I started with the black red and hints of yellow and blue
Then I added some bold solids - I have to add that with this colour palette I was thinking of guys, cos everyone needs to use a quilt :)
and selected a backing... (bottom right)
Then I took some time to play with patterns... the trick was to pay the quilt out in a way to work with the featured bandanas both visually and size wise.
The one I chose for these colours was the pattern with large square in a square blocks (or log cabin variation) alternating with the bandanas.
The beggining
The first blocks...
A stack of blocks trimmed to size...
A stack of bandana quarters trimmed to size, some I had to unpick the hem because I wanted to feature the text around the outside...
The quilt top all laid out ready to sew together, I just need the dedication block for the missing space (thanks Vicki for the idea )
Its definitely busy, and believe me those pieced blocks do weird things out of the corners of your eyes lol! However its not for me, and I think it works alright together... please give me your thoughts x
