i have 9" blocks, 1"logs.

it is pretty scrappy. i think in total there are about 24 fabrics in play, give or take.

i want to create a barn raising set.

so here's my question:

if half the logs have one fabric in the same position - the outermost strip (so the longest in the block) - will it stand out a whole lot when i put the quilt together?

i am pooped and i can't "see" it in my mind. i don't want to sew that pink polka dot on in the same spot as the other pink polka dot strip if it's going to look....weird or stand out or be really emphatic.

do you know what i mean? is this why people buy eq software?

can you help me get a sense of this?

for context, here's a shot of the first 20 blocks, just laid out so i can see them. the quilt will ultimately be 8 blocks by 10....so 40 blocks with this light pink polka dot in that pole position...

i think maybe i am freaking out about nothing and should just sew the darned strip on and let it go.

what do you think?
