Black and amber

I posted my trial of Jacobs ladder retro a few days ago and someone suggested reversing colours. When I tried I much preferred it with black as main focus. This is what it looks like. Now to border and quilt it. Quilt smaller than I would normally do but will give to friend who sends lots of stuff to Africa and other countries.someone will enjoy it.

I like the switch as well.

nicely done

I prefer this also

​It looks navy and yellow on my screen but I really like it!

Very nice. My monitor shows it as blue and tan, which is also a nice color combination

I love your lay out but before you start sewing the rows I think one of the 4 patches in the center is turned wrong.

WOW ! I remember your previous post and it is amazing how different this quilt looks.

I don't want to alarm you but is there something going on in the center of the quilt, a backwards block, maybe, or is it my eyes!

EDIT: I see two spots that the four patch needs a quarter turn to make the colors line up properly.

EDIT: What I originally wanted to say is that I really like the top this way. Very sharp, nice conrtast in the two color combo and very modern.:D
peace

Yes, a patch needs to be turned a quarter turn, I think. Looks good though.

Diane007 11-07-2013 02:14 PM

yes it seems to stand out more

very nice

Just had text to say one square placed wrong but actually there are two so will fix in am. Had picture sent before I noticed.

What a difference just switching colors made. Amazing.

Really looks good

Looks great, although it is coming over as blue and yellow, I really like it.

mjhaess 11-09-2013 07:06 AM

That is just lovely....

Very pretty

I don't recall prior layout but then again, I've been asleep since then. Great looking quilt!

KathyJ 11-09-2013 08:06 AM

I see blue and cream but whatever the colors, you made the best choice. Well done.

MissSongbird 11-09-2013 08:09 AM

You did a great job on this quilt. The colors really make the design pop. And the mistake gives it some character ;)

Dordee 11-09-2013 05:06 PM
