Very pretty. I love blues too.
|
Unbelievable - LOVE IT - beautiful - My nephew wants me to make him a quilt and his favorite color is blue - not sure what I will do yet but this is a thought.
|
Your quilt is GORGEOUS!!!!! When I saw all the blues in your before, I wasn't sure how it would turn out. It's stunning! :-)
|
Blue Bird of happiness.......so beautiful!
|
Very Pretty!!!
|
Gee that's pretty. It's so easy to get blues that clash but you did a great job! Nice, nice quilt!
|
Beautiful !! :-)
Great job !! :-) |
This is one stunning quilt top!
I would add sashing to the left and bottom sides and finish with one wide dark border and dark binding. The quilt has a wonderful diagonal flow and a dark border wouldn't bring that to an abrupt halt. Sort of like the quilt top is the galaxy and it just drifts off into space. (My love of nature and sci-fi just pop up every now and then :D ) Best of all, audition lots of possibilities for borders, take pictures and most likely, one will present itself as THE one. |
Striking, love the layout

Blue is one (LOL) of my favorite colors. Love your quilt.
|
WOW! I like that! I have been promising myself a two colored quilt for a while. I really like your "Blues".
|
Whoa! That is truly gorgeous!
|
Oh my, you have me drooling. Blue is my favorite color and you have some beauties. Your quilt is absolutely gorgeous!!!!
|
WOW i wish i had the knack for making quilts like that this is gorgeous.
|
No ideas, but I'm very impressed with your quilt, it's beautiful. :shock:
|
This is beautiful! For borders, I would place a small strip of white on white (the same width of your sashing or 1-1 1/2" larger), and 1 or 2 strips of blue (a light and a dark). But whatever you choose, the finished product will be gorgeous. You have done this color justice! :thumbup:
|
It looks wonderful!!
|
Love the blues...stunning!
|
WOW! Love this!!!!
|
Wonderful color combo, wonderful layout.
|
...and I was too worried about having too much of the same color! I like it. Thanks for sharing..
|
Don't have any suggestions, but the quilt and lay=out of the color tones is gorgeous
|
I love the blues
|
As far as boaders I would do a light blue an the 2 light sides and as dark blue in th 2 dark sides
|
OK I have still been following this thread to see what you decide for the border. If it helps, and I hope my opinion does not hurt your feelings, I would not like your piano key idea for the border. There is just so much movement in this quilt that I think that type of border would stop all the movement.
I personally agree with the dark border and binding, this would allow the quilt top to continue to flow, kind of like the stars in the sky comment. Whatever you decide please post your finished quilt I look forward to seeing it. |
I ordered a few more blues , one or two of which I think will work great as borders....They should be in by the end of the week....I'm not real crazy about the piano keys idea myself the more I think about it. I'll update as soon as I have something new to share. :)
|
I can't wait to see your next update!
I was just showing this to my DH and he liked it a lot. I was saying how I would love to make this quilt it is such an easy pattern. Will have to continue to build my blues stash first. |
wow I really like that! Love the way the blues go together.
|
Gosh I love it! I love blues and you have really made a beautiful quilt there!
I am too new to quilting to help with the borders thought.... sorry! Hugs |
This is GORGEOUS!
|
Love the blues!
