I tried to do what was suggested, the results are shown in the first picture. I also tried the combination sylviak suggested. Then I hopped in bed so I could be ready to the day. I could not sleep. I am on vacation from the family, in a nice cabin by a beautiful lake. It is so relaxing and peaceful. So, rather than sleep I let these silly red fabrics dance in my head for hours!!! At 1 am I arranged them again, thinking I ONLY want red. I kind of like what I got but that would create more shopping which I don’t have the funds for. BUT----I forgot my rotary cutter so I have to go to the store anyway. Now looking at page 88 (I posted the picture below). I am thinking this may be what I want. The person this quilt is for loves red, so I wanted to go over the top with red which is why I choose a Bargello.

I made a Bargello with blues from my very, very small, like it fit in two small boxes at the time, stash and it turned out great. So maybe I am making too much of this. One of my problems is that red is one of my least favorite colors. The other is I just don’t see what you guys see. Sure I see it once it is pointed out…

I am thinking the best thing to do now is go get some coffee :)

Thanks again for all the help :thumbup:


edit: I forgot to mention that I put the darkest fabric next to the lightest fabric since they will be like that in the finished product.
