I really like it! I kinda agree with esqmommy that bubbles would look neat, but my first reaction was that I like it the way it is. Looks like it might have been fun to do.

You go girl! You are a fast one! Love the colors and your piecing is perfect. I think it would look awesome with some bubbles! Crank those out tomorrow! No matter what you do, that quilt is going to be a winner!

i love the quilt top - you've been putting up some beautiful work lately - you must have a muse sitting on your shoulders.

i always have such a hard time following directions to the letter. i would do the bubbles but not as many as the pic on the pattern nor would i use their lay out.

i would start with a large circle towards the bottom left - i can't really give you a size because scale is always off in pic vs. real life - but lets just say a 6 inch circle for example.

then i would cut a 5 inch, a 4 inch, a 3 , a 2, and a 1.

then i would lay them out on the quilt top kinda forming an undulating S - but a soft shape not a perfect example of an S.

if the scale is wrong for 6 circle to swirl from bottom left to the top right then do a 7, 8, etc - until you have the shape and flow across the top.

i think it will add an element of vertical flow since this pattern is such a strong horizontal flow.

so any way - now that i redesigned your quilt and gave you tons of extra work - you should do whatever you like because in the end you're the one living it

:D

You are so wonderfully creative, KLue.

Thanks for the pattern :D

I would add some bubbles, it's pretty like you have it but it looks like it is missing something. Maybe use the bubbles in the borders?

I love what you have done with
your top already. But, I also think
if you wanted to add a bit more,
you could. Either way would be
great!!
:D :D :D :D :D
