This is where I am at, both physically and mentally ...
1/2 way through finishing both the coral and brown flying geese (as I was way behind, it was easier to both of these at the same time and together). The only clue/unit I've not made yet is the brown/blue half squares (or obviously the coral half square add-on).
then I see the reveal.
my initial knee-jerk reaction was that I loved it. I adore busy patterns that make great secondary patterns, which Bonnie is genius at creating. But the more I looked at it, the more I thought "too much coral". One other thing bothers my OCD brain ... the chevron sashing frames the blocks in one row differently than in the next row, and that's kind of weird to my brain.
for now I'm going to continue with the geese and keep an eye on the board here and the QVFB page for alternate ideas. One idea that came to me is to replace the brown/aqua/coral shaded 4patch unit with an aqua/brown, aqua/neutral, or brown/neutral half square unit. Not sure about the sashing, will my brain be able to cope with what looks to me as a reversal of units in alternating rows? But I've already made those units and I won't let them go to waste. Not sure. And I may just finish it as designed, after all my initial reaction was that I loved it (in complete reversal to Grand Illision when I made it and saw the reveal, hated it at first, but the more I studied it I fell in love with genius of the geometry- the colors not so much).
Oh well ... I will keep plugging along with my gaggle of geese, and keep my mind open. You ladies who are exploring different ideas are a font of inspiration!!
