Can you put all of the dark ones in the center and then blend out medium and then lite on very edges? Then I would sash with a dark color first just to lock in the design area, then a med print for full border.....

I like the idea of using the darker blocks nearer to the center. I would also add a darker inner border and binding. It's pretty!

Try it with a narrow red border, then the border that you planned.

I agree about the red too. Maybe use the red blocks as the quilt center, or throw them out and make a block out of a softer color??? I am sorry if this is not of any help to you.

I'm in the same place as you. I've been letting a bunch of blocks "rest" on the design board. So far, nothing looks right to me. Let us know what you end up doing. |
I like this layout the best and after you add borders I think you will be very happy with it

I like the very first one too and with a narrow red boarder and the pink outer border it will look amazing.

I like this layout and agree with you that the border choice does not lift the quilt. Once you have chosen the right border and binding it will look stunning.
