I love the idea of string-pieced triangle blocks...what if you did those in opposite corners, branching out a bit, then did your lovely words in the rest of the space...might be fun to use those string blocks sparingly instead of uniformly around the triangles.<br /><br />Just a thought...I love watching your progress...<br /><br />In stitches,<br />Teresa :o)Teresa Rawsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12198469746467771421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5519971608620748480.post-48553677728680465272010-02-15T02:20:19.624-05:002010-02-15T02:20:19.624-05:00Love the idea of the two borders.

I think coming up with the words are the most challenging part (sorry, no good ideas) but they will make a very interesting center! The size of your triangles are amazing, and they look great! It will be fun to see your next step here<br /><br />; )Marithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15652525503548062821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5519971608620748480.post-49055469707102927312010-02-14T20:59:27.785-05:002010-02-14T20:59:27.785-05:00The words are the hardest for me to choose, but I ...The words are the hardest for me to choose, but I like all the words mentioned. I can't imaging using all those triangles, but I'm curious to see what you will come up with.

I like the idea of the HST's and the strings on the white, with a bigger border between them.<br /><br />Perhaps do the centre black, with the word in the pale pink (if that is what it is). A white border between the two and then black again. Don't do a pink border, except, perhaps for the yukky binding bit.<br /><br />If you are following the Rumspringa series, how about Life? This quilt is going to be so full of it.<br /><br />Sorry - not very constructive. I'm all coloured out!Clarehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09344963200919601488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5519971608620748480.post-92132371308970762012010-02-14T17:21:06.103-05:002010-02-14T17:21:06.103-05:00I did already think of dividing the negative space...I did already think of dividing the negative space up so I could avoid Y-seams, but I was still left with a lot of biasy triangles around the edges of the lozenges.

Why don't ...Oh....but I loved the ocean waves. Why don't you divide that solid black pieces into four, diagonally, making the diagonal ocean wave sections into squares that could be pieced easier? After quilting, you wouldn't see that the area had been divided. Or, you could use different blacks to emphasize that it had been divided! (Not sure I'm articulating this effectively.)<br />I expect that anything you do with your wonderful triangles will be a success, but I hate to see you abandon the ocean waves idea.Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05308304528741934038noreply@blogger.com
