M,
I am glad Patrice and I had some input to your donning of this quilt. I hope in the next week or so to have a done (my first) to add to yours.
You done good for a colorblind person. You done good for a non-colorblind person. I like the border fabric, suits my taste extremely well.
Someone has a real surprise ahead of them.
Take the scraps and make a couple of long strips of fabric (2 1/2 inches wide), one light one dark.. I am talking LONG... join lots of them using the diagonal end piecing method... Then make a log cabin quilt of all those strips, just using up the strips as you go along, two sides dark, two sides light. http://www.nmia.com/~mgdesign/qor/styles/logcabin/log1d.gif
The colors won't matter, just the gorgeous interplay of light and dark. Ultimate scrappy quilt. Piece the blocks out to 12 inches. That particular quilt looks like 2 inch finished strips (2 1/2 inch raw) with a 2 inch sashing running through the quilt.
