Layout HELP! Update
 
1 Attachment(s)
OK!! After taking all the wonderful advice you guys offered, I decided to go with the red scattered. Also, I added another row making it 8x10, but the pattern is even. This is the largest quilt I've done thus far and now that it's up on the design wall I'm scared! haha! Going to get red inner border to go with my pink floral outer border. I'm pretty pleased. I'm going to mess with the blocks a little more, ie: play with the pattern placements, but other than that I am going to try to quit being ocd and just go with it.

Beautiful, I like it this way. Sew it together and finish it up, it will look super.

i love it that way!

I love the look of the red being spread out. Is it just me or does the bottom block second from left need to be turned? Love the colors and can't wait to see it with the borders on it. Great job so far!!!

alfosa421 09-25-2012 03:49 PM

Looks great Now sew it together before you get another bout of OCD LOL!!

LLWinston44 09-25-2012 04:15 PM

Yes it is! THANKS for noticing!!! And thanks everyone!! I'm SO glad that that's over. lol

First time I'm seeing it and I think it's beautiful. Like it a lot.

I really like it as is. Remember...DONE IS GOOD!

Chris Anders 09-25-2012 07:20 PM

Looks fabulous to me. The red border will set it off. Can't wait to see it when you are finished. Great job.

Betty Fox 09-25-2012 08:39 PM

Beautiful quilt. I love the colors. Looks good the way you have it laid out except second block bottom row need to be turned. Love the pattern.

Judyth 09-26-2012 03:56 AM

Don't think you should change a thing. It's beautiful just the way it is.

Friday1961 09-26-2012 06:55 AM

So beautiful and elegant. The white pops in this layout. You've done it! Now sew it up quick! I really love this quilt.

LLWinston44 09-26-2012 07:53 AM

Wow thanks you guys!!! I love it too. I'm going to have a hard time parting with it. lol. However, it's for my sons 'friend'. He's in Afghanistan and they'll re-evaluate their relationship when he get's home. They were high school sweethearts first couple years of HS. I loved her then and even though they broke up, she and I remained close, discreetly of course, and I love her as though she were one of my own. Our whole family does. So when he asked for her phone number late last year, I was hesitant to give it to him.... Knowing she still loved him, but not sure where he stood (having just gotten divorced from a cheater).... However, I gave it to him and they reconnected. Yay!! I would LOVE for them to end up together. SO, long story short, this quilt is for her.

Kitsie 09-26-2012 09:00 AM

Oh wow! I think you've got it! That really pops! Congratulations!

Valerie Scherr 09-26-2012 09:19 AM

DeneK 09-26-2012 12:41 PM

I like the way you chose. These colors are so great together. Can't wait to see it when you finish.

karenpatrick 09-27-2012 03:13 AM

Very good job. Love it.

patsynel 09-27-2012 03:49 AM

It looks very good. Please share a picture when you get the borders on.

sew_itnow 09-27-2012 04:47 AM

It will be beautiful. Just enjoy doing it.

glorcour 09-27-2012 04:49 AM

As they say, "I'll get by with a little help from my friends." This looks terrific as it is and will be completely enhanced by the borders. Great job!

amandasgramma 09-27-2012 05:42 AM

I just dropped in the glance thru --- have to say, that is one BEAUTIFUL quilt!!!! I'm with another, that bottom left block needs to be turned........otherwise, WOW - what a beauty!!!! A red border would make it pop! GOOD JOB! Want to see pics when you get it quilted!!!!

EmiliasNana 09-27-2012 05:55 AM

I'm OCD too and the placement is perfect. The border will just highlight the beautiful design. Be sure to post when it is done. Great job so far.

oops..........just noticed the second block from the left in the last row is turned wrong. Correct before you put the borders on or it will drive you crazy LOL

bibi 09-27-2012 06:34 AM

You did great!

MimiBug123 09-27-2012 08:16 AM

We really can become OCD (or CDO, if we must alphabetize) when it comes to our quilting! I love it just the way it is. I'd put a red border on it and quilt it as is. It is really very pretty, so don't change a thing!

Wanabee Quiltin 09-27-2012 09:26 AM

Really nice quilt.

rj.neihart 09-27-2012 12:17 PM

This is really beautiful....would love to have this pattern...
