Results of Round Two for placement !!

I am trying to get away from a typical rectangle and the need to use so many 1/2 hexes. Will be content to make it 6 or 8 sided, somewhat oblong. I know it's not balanced that way yet, though am stopping now as I'm just too darned tired!

I think this round is looking better than the first one ... your comments and suggestions are welcomed!

I really like what you have done this far and your colors are really nice.

Ooooohh, your material is really pretty!
So far, so good!

Thanks ... I wish that my camera was giving as nice of colours for the hexes as it did for the fabric photo. Same camera and the design wall is only about 8 ft from where the fabric was shot. So why?



Dear Moderators ... please forgive me for I have sinned. I just realized that I did not post this to the Picture Board. If you would like to move it, please do!

*hangs head in shame*
:)

What is the name of that material please ????

What lovely fabric...looking good!

great! and i love to see the fabric you start with

Very pretty - well done.

I love your fabric and your blocks, unfortunately I can't help, I've never done a OBW, one reason is working with hexagons, but I'm sure you'll get lots of help from others.

Are you using a book for the hexagon pattern? If so could you please clue me in on what it is, I think I just may want to give this a try myself!
Beautiful work, by the way.

Here it is, as it is on the selvedge --
Peony Ancien by Ron Jebran for Print Concept, Inc. Patt #4986
(followed by 18 colour dots!)

Maxine Rosenthal is the designer and author of the book.
I'll get the full details later and post them for you.

Do not fear the hexes ... you don't do Y seams. It's actually quite a relaxing pattern to do. IMHO The worse part is where I am now, in deciding where to put the hexes and where to have the colours placed.

It is beautiful. Love you fabric and the placement.

When I finish a Scrappy UFO, I don't know to post it under UFO challenge, Scrappy Quilt Challenge or to pictures. (No shame, because were all shameless, or so I think) :thumbup:

TonnieL ... My radar is up a little, being that I got an email telling I had one moved over. Thus why!! And to think, I haven't found the Challenge boards you are mentioning. Where goes thous?

Looking good can't wait to see the finished pic

I love it

Very pretty.

Great job so far! Love the fabric!

It's since been rearranged and all stitched together. If you'd like to see the results, please check this link ...

I think your block placement looks very balanced. It has lots of movement and seams to dance. I love the fabric you' re using. This is on my long list of must try this!

I think it is very pretty

Here it is .... all finished and done!
