Sorry Klue, but I like them out. But then you know what an old fashioned quilter I am.I feel like they take away from the center facing in.With them pointing out, the center becomes the point that your eye is drawn to .
that's just me.
that's just me.

That's some mighty fine work.
In the close up of the points in was impressive, but when you pulled back for a wider view, I think the points need to be out.
Your inside design is movement. The prairie points tell a story of their own ... if they are pointing in, then I begin to feel that the world is closing in on the movement, and they also tend to fade into the background.
When the points are pointing out, the fabric is a lighter color, thus more noticeable and it makes me feel as though the inner movement is moving toward me.
It is a beautiful work of quilting.

I just asked my 7 year old son and he said outwards! I often ask him opinions becuase he's got a pretty good eye and he just says what he thinks, not what he thinks I want to hear! This time he disagrees with me but hey, that doesn't mean he's wrong! LOL
