My DGD was recently in a Ballet recital called Snow White and the Seven Giants. So I found a panel from Snow White that I wanted to do something out of for her. The original plan was to make a dance bag but the center panel was TOO TALL for an adult, never mind an 8 year old.
So I started playing around with fabrics to make her a lap quilt out of it. Of course I have to "build" the sides and top to fit the center panel. Right now I am trying to decide what to use for the "sashing" pieces to bring it all together. I have included a few choices that I have on hand, but I do have others that might work as well. So, any ideas? Dark green? Burgundy? Another pink? Combination of them with Flying Geese? I'm stumped..... What I have so far [ATTACH=CONFIG]220435[/ATTACH] Close up of the sides [ATTACH=CONFIG]220436[/ATTACH] Some fabric choices [ATTACH=CONFIG]220437[/ATTACH] |

It looks great so far. And how fun and meaningful.

White might work as well, but whatever you do it's going to be a treasure. I really like what you have so far.

I don't know why but I really like the burgundy. It is a nice contrast to the lighter colors. It is already beautiful and will be a special reminder of the time the two of you spent together during the recital. I look forward to seeing the finished product.

I like the light pink you have started with... very nice quilt...

What about a thin first sash of that lovely green, a slightly wider one of pink and then white?
I personally believe that flying geese will detract from the blocks. The blocks seem to work quite well with the scenes. I love that, please show us the final quilt. |
