I like it! It's coming to me, right? All hints appreciated!

ljdugas31 07-05-2011 08:35 AM

ok in my defence, i didn't say i didn't like it,i said i don't like the colors for me. But everyone has different tastes,she wants me to always be honest with her so ...........lol

JudyG 07-05-2011 09:16 AM

I like it too. Luckily, not all of us like the same thing or it would be boring to work on the same colors all the time. It will be good for her to work outside her comfort zone. :lol: :lol:

After spending a lot of time with my block that I posted I was going to use, I have decided that I am afraid when all the borders are added my little bird will get lost. So I decided to change it up somewhat. Same fabric, just more in the center so it doesn't get lost. The original block was just 12 inches, with the center of it being only about 4. So I put four of them together and now it's about 17 inches. Maybe it won't get lost now.

dotcomdtcm 07-05-2011 09:21 AM

Might be nice to add more birds in the borders. Sending scraps?

abonda 07-05-2011 09:47 AM

Yes! I just sent it to you today in the mail...... so look for it.... I was thinking on the holiday line but... When it talks to you you'll know what it wants..... :thumbup: I am leaving it up to you to do what ever you want to do to it.... That's the excitement of it.... Can't wait.

OK, I want to do this right for all of ya'll, so the costumer in me couldn't go to sleep, I kept looking at it, and at it and at 2am I knew what it was. I wanted to isolate the white from the center to the border. So I added the small holly strip and I think it is just right now.
Here is what it looks like now.
