Default Scrappy Trip Around the World

Finally finished my first Bonnie Hunter quilt, Scrappy Trip Around the World. I have to say, I learned a lot about color, contrast, and value with this quilt. I found out it's not enough to like your fabrics. If there's no contrast or value, they have no way to differentiate themselves to make them special. I learned after the first 5 blocks (you can probably tell which ones they are). After it's said and done, I do really, really like this top, and can't wait to get it quilted. Trying to decide if I'm going to put borders on or not. Most that I see do not have them, but I think adding the border color will help tie everything in. This has been my most favorite, and fun block to piece to date! Try it, if you haven't already. You'll be hooked.
