Block Placement:
In the next few pics, you can see how the blocks were scattered to highlight certain areas. When I look at the quilt, I like to just visualize a lower case "t" going down the block and across and using that to centralize the highlighting blocks when placing the blocks on the design wall. You can use anything as a focal point and artists are great for pointing you to look in the right direction at their work when finished so keeping that in mind, we will focus on the mid-center sections of the quilt as the focal points up, down and across.
You'll notice, too, that there may be an area where some dark blocks congregated. This is okay to let this happen~! There may be some areas where 2 light background blocks came together and I left it that way, or maybe 2 med. colored blocks came neck to neck. That's okay too! You're the artist, after all, so do what you want best! Point the onlooker to the area in the quilt you want emphasized! Sometimes I do; sometimes I don't!
