Koi Panel Update - Top Finished
2 Attachment(s)
The top I started yesterday is completed. I had to use a navy blue solid for the narrow border and had to do some real creative piecing to have enough of the sea foam color for the final border, but I made it! I am going to make another of these and put the things I learned to work. Should be even quicker.
Now to decide how to quilt it. I have a large piece of another floral, thinking about using it as the backing and following that design for the quilting. Do you think that would look okay? Also, I decided it looks better hung on the horizontal rather than the vertical. What do you think? |
I prefer it vertically but it's really pretty. I do like what you did with it and the borders. :)

Very pretty hung either way. I vote for changing it every so often.

You made a beautiful quilt from your panel. I think it looks better vertically but it's fine either way. You did a great job on this!
|
I like the koi fabric!
This is a nice pattern and I'm glad someone found it. I plan to try this pattern with some Asian-looking fabric I have on hand. Thanks for sharing. It looks nice both ways but I prefer the vertical way. |
Very nice. When I first saw it I thought how pretty. Then I saw the vertical and I thought that was pretty. When I looked at them again it seemed to me that the vertical was better looking. The vertical looks more grounded to me. (Looks to me like the water might run out on the horizontal, dumb huh).Either way you did a good job on this. BrendaK

That came out awesome
|
Very pretty quilt no matter how you look at it. I love the pattern and ranger is right it is a good pattern to showcase other Asian fabrics.
|
Beautiful! Where did you get this pattern, or did you make this up yourself?
|
That looks wonderful! Great job!:thumbup:
|
Lovely, but I prefer vertical - the idea for the backing and the quilting should be fine...
|
what a beautiful finish! i live the vertical the best.
|
Came out wonderful, great job and thank you for sharing
Have a Blessed day Ellen |
That turned out wonderful!
|
Both ways look great but for some reason I keep going back to the vertical. Great job.
|
nice in both directions
|
Beautiful, I love it either way. Great job.
|
I vote for vertical!
|
I too prefer it vertically, and I LOVE what you did with this! The narrow black border is perfect, too! Nice job!
|
Awesome pattern! It looks perfect either vertical or horizontal. It's just hard to choose when they are so close together. I would probably go with verticlal! :)
