opinions requested, purple batik quilt borders
HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL, I haven't been on the board for a few months, but I have been busy. Last fall, I requested scraps of purple batiks and the response from the quilters on this board was awesome. Think I have enough to do 2 purple quilts. And the grands will love that, think they all love purple. Anyway, the blocks are set on an off white background, and have the same for the borders. I have gotten 4 blocks done, and laid them out on Friday, and thought that is really dull. So, today, when I looked at it again, I still had the same impression, so I laid out scrappy strips of purple and my husband agrees that the blocks show up better. So now I am coming to more experts for their opinions. Please let me know what you think.
