I think you need to go with the dark blue(first one). Your DGM will be sew proud of you for carrying on what she was teaching you! Looking forward to seeing pics of your finished quilt.

I think the first one looks great. I can see that Granny is still with you because you are doing a great job! :thumbup:

I think a less busy navy for the background and using a yellow circle in the center of the plates will really pop it all out.

Aw, thank you so much I have been and I really hope she's proud, when I'm finally done. I tell you one thing though, we always hand stitched everything and my hands will just not do it anymore, they get too stiff and sore so I'm machine quilting it all! Hope she'll forgive me that? :oops: :lol:

Thank you so much, I surelly will post pics when I'm done!

1st and sorry for your loss. Good luck

Aw, thank you Marsey and you know what? She was from Conway! :lol:

Hey, now THAT's a novel idea! Hmmmmm ... thank you for that, I'll see what that looks like!

the 2nd one!! Sorry about your grandmother too.

Aw, thank you so much. It's been 10 years now so I'm finally done enough w/the greiving to quilt again and she's with me in every stitch. I feel like I'm a grown up now, doing it all on my own like this, imagine growing up at 48 ... well not all the way, still a kid at heart :lol:
