Tais toi! :x :P

:twisted:

K, I'm leaving that for you to do!!

I would like so to know to create these blocks! I congratulate.

Keep watching Monica....if we can do it, you can do it too!!!


And K...so Monsieur LeCoque will probably speak something I can't understand...you know I'm only fluent in English, Redneck and Ebonics!!!

Hey Gai, did you wash your fabrics first? Do you want me to wash the fabric I'm using before I sew it on?

I'm also wondering...do you want to be surprised, or can I talk to you about my thoughts. I'm really afraid of ruining your quilt by making it too busy. I chose some fabrics and thought about doing a very simple border so as to give more definition between this layer and the next. But, it's not going to be anything "fabulous" from me, but I think it will help keep the special center to stand out...do you know what I'm saying? I can post photos of what I'm planning, and you can say "ya" or "na", or I can just do what I'm doing and ... well, you know what I'm saying. I've never done a RR before, so I'm wanting to do the right thing...

Man, oh, man... I'm glad all I have to do is look at them! :D

Hiya Esq! Like I said to you before, I have absolute confidence in you!! I know that I will love whatever you do. This is my first IRR too, so between the two of us it's the blind leading the blind. :shock: :?:

I do think that sometimes less is more. If what you see/envision is a simple border, go for it. I've gone back and looked at the previous IRR photos and some of the borders are very plain, but it's these plain borders that seem to make the others pop. I am going to make a fairly plain border for JoeAnn's quilt. Right now I have some pretty brown (with sparkles. You can tell I like sparkles!) and I'm thinking of just that with maybe two or three squares in a square of complimentary colors in the middle of each side. I'll play and then decide.

So, kiddo, go for it, either way. I promise you I will love whatever you do. There is no "ruining" talk allowed! :P :P

Well, ms. barnbum, enjoy it now, 'cause I'm gonna nag you into joining the next one! You have a year to pick out your big girl IRR panties! :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Hey ya'll....remember that sometimes Less really IS more....maybe ya'll didn't learn that as its an architectural/interior design thing....but I'll introduce it to you here.

Especially at this stage with the borders being so small...sometimes a plain border in the perfect fabric is all that is required. Sometimes you can do a very simple piecing pattern....especially if the owner of the center already put a "framing" border around her center. As the tops grow...they do seem to speak to us a little louder about what they need. Remember that allowing for fabulous areas to quilt the finished product will make the piece spectacular!

And....nobody in this group has the potential to "ruin" anything!!! :roll: Way too much talent for that!....(with 1 exception who will hide behind this post)
