Hello to everyone,

I took some time to admire all the fabulous quilts that people have been making! We have been a very very busy board!!!! Such creativity among us!!!! Truly inspiring.

I've been having fun with triangle frenzies in the last couple of days! Here's a pic of a table centerpiece and two place mats that are done:

Pretty fabrics. I vote #1 for the dark and #2 for the light. I really like the green ones too. Did you do that the same way you did the runners?

quilter2theend 01-14-2016 04:38 PM

I vote the same as FAbStripper.

KLO 01-14-2016 04:43 PM

I like #2 and #2 but I have made some of these and it is often hard to chose which way to go as they all look so great. I would say you cannot lose no matter which option you finally decide on.

Tiggersmom 01-14-2016 04:55 PM

#2 +#2 gets my vote.

Tweety2911 01-14-2016 04:56 PM

I like them all :thumbup:

Teacup 01-14-2016 05:43 PM

#1 first and #2 second.

Quiltaddiction 01-14-2016 05:56 PM

I think #1 first and #2 second too.

QuiltnNan 01-14-2016 05:57 PM

i can't choose between the first ones' options.. they are both great. on the softer one, i vote for option 2 because i don't care for the angled straight lines on the ends.

Fieryphoenix 01-14-2016 06:24 PM

Do u know the two green placemats in the first picture are screwy? The green pieces on the bottom are reversed or something, just a fyi! I like number two on both the other runners

Marni 01-14-2016 06:26 PM

Number 2 for both!

NatalieF 01-14-2016 06:28 PM

For the darks, I prefer option # 1 as that black central piece gets framed, showcased and the colors really pop, to my eyes.

For the softer look, I prefer option #2, as the symmetry appeals to me more.

Texas_Sue 01-14-2016 07:39 PM

I like #2 for the dark and #2 for the light. All are gorgeous.

Mariposa 01-14-2016 07:40 PM

These are great!

zozee 01-14-2016 07:44 PM

I vote 2&2. Very pretty .

nanacc 01-14-2016 07:54 PM

I like #2 on both! I have made some of these and have more planned. I agree that the placement options are tough to choose from! Lots of fun, though!

ditto from me. Love the placemats and centerpiece!

Bree123 01-14-2016 08:46 PM

#1 without a doubt on the autumn runner. The black in the center really makes it pop without the runner looking too dark.
#2 for the pink floral. The first pink looks too busy between all the floral & then diagonal lines running through it.

DOTTYMO 01-14-2016 11:51 PM

My vote is 2 and 2. The finished mini quilts are beautiful.

JustAbitCrazy 01-15-2016 04:03 AM

Option 1 for the dark, option 2 for the light get my vote for favorites.

same here!

bjchad 01-15-2016 04:41 AM

Either option works for the dark for me but for the light only #2 works for me.

quilterpurpledog 01-15-2016 04:56 AM

I like the ones with the borders on the perimeter that draw in eye inward. I would not choose the light one that creates angles that go outward. I really like the design of this pattern and you chose wonderful fabrics.

nancyw 01-15-2016 05:20 AM

I like 2 and 2.

greaterexp 01-15-2016 05:43 AM

#2 both times. Pretty!

Karamarie 01-15-2016 05:52 AM

1 and 2 also in that order.

ManiacQuilter2 01-15-2016 06:34 AM

I LOVE the ones that were in the first picture. I love that you used shading and the fabrics were perfect. I prefer the 2nd one being I love florals.

NIICHMOM 01-15-2016 06:44 AM

It is really hard to decide, they are all lovely... But I vote for #1 for dark & # 1 for the pink

tessagin 01-15-2016 06:48 AM

Option #2 for both.

lfletcher 01-15-2016 06:54 AM

The green place mats are beautiful, but as Fieryphoenix said, there is one piece turned around. All the centers' colors need to be together. I wouldn't change the ones you have made, but if you make more, you might want to do them with all the center colors together.

The first runners are both beautiful, it just depends on your taste. I vote the the first one.
For the softer one, I think the pink needs to be around the outside to frame the pretty flowers.

mrodarme 01-15-2016 07:10 AM

could u show the 'before' fabric...i see the triangle cuts, but trying to figure what type of fabric motif to look for....very nice all of them...

Me too, #1 and #2

nativetexan 01-15-2016 07:49 AM

option 2 on both of the Frenzy ones. Very cute!Q!!

Friday1961 01-15-2016 08:36 AM

No. 2 for both. These are beautiful! As are your centerpiece frenzy and your placemats!

Kitsie 01-15-2016 09:16 AM

#2 and #2 for me also! Lovely fabrics!

Mariposa 01-15-2016 09:19 AM

I vote #2 on both~~ :)

The Babe 01-15-2016 09:31 AM

I vote #1 on the first and #2 on the second. Are these hard to do and is there a pattern available?
