Has anyone ever reversed the dark / light color. Only ones I've seen have white centers. What do you think a dark center and white outer?? I have some beautiful plaids gifted me, and very little white. Was thinking of plaid centers and white outers??? What do you think??? Appreciate your feed back :)

As is often said ... there's no rules in quilting!!!! Do what is right for you!!! :) |
go with what YOU want... I think it would be strikingly pretty! Or even a cream background, or tan, if the plaids are like homespuns? Give a little more "country" feel ... no quilt police allowed near my house, I don't follow the normal guidelines ever! LOL

Thanks gals.... I really am thinking of trying this.. Just have never seen one yet. oh well, I've always been a little different. :)

Well you could make one or two and see what they look like. If you like it , then go for it.

I have seen one in "opposite" colors and honestly liked it better than the standard version.
