I always tend to pick my quilts apart as a I am working on them, rethinking the colors, layout, etc. But I agree with the other girls, once you get it finished, with the added dimension of the quilting and binding/borders etc. You will like it better.I would keep the border/s on the simple side and let the blocks do the talking~ I cant wait to see it finished. How much more do you have to do?

I am a fan of traditional quilts also, but your quilt is awesome. I think a lot of quilters will love it. Keep going and show us the finished product. The colors are beautiful by the way.

I do really like several of the blocks, not sure if I like them all together. I do appreciate all the work that went into the quilts I saw, just not my cup of tea (I am wondering is the pattern really $50.00)

I love that sampler quilt - I have seen it all over the internet - but it has some blocks that are a little out of my comfort zone. I hope you enjoy putting it together.

Personally, I think that this pattern would benefit from having some sashing between the blocks. Your piecing is fantastic, though - wonderful job there. And the applique block is just beautiful - I'm always envious of other people's applique work, as I completely bomb that.
So, yes, I agree with you, the pattern (as is) is too busy. However, I think that with some very narrow sashing, and some Civil War repro fabrics, this would be outstanding.
Just my opinion, and you DID ask for it, right?
Still, I'd love to see the finished quilt once you're done. Again, great job on the piecing and applique!!

I think it is too early to comment on it. Hope you post a picture of it when it's completed.

Love it!! Sometimes you have to step outside your comfort zone.

It IS busy, but I think when you get the whole thing assembled, it will look fine and you'll love it!

I love it just the way it is. It is so interesting to look at. Lots of movement and I like it.
