Blue is not my favourite colour, but it looks OK with some pink and purple in this project file.

I do love having empty spaces to show off some quilting, and I prefer to not use feathers. I like feathers, but prefer to see formal designs with either bubbles, squiggles, straight lines or cross hatch filling in the background around both the formal quilting designs and the applique.

One thing I do not like is to see all over quilting which has no real relationship to the pieced or applique on the quilt top.

Looks old fashioned to me, but I like old fashioned so that is ok.

Some rather fiddly blocks, and if it was a real old quilt it would have all been done by hand.

I like the first one best because there is more quilting being shown off.

Interesting sashing, resulting in a lovely design.

Should have used interesting sashing!

Very dainty.

More blocks, lots of detail, and I think this design is one which will remain forever virtual.

I love the sashing in this design. I rarely use sashing in my designs, though in many of the quilts I have made I have used sashing, but not one as interesting as the one shown above.

I like the border on the second design, but am asking myself what if I make some changes of scale of the end elements?

PS I apologize for not posting this earlier, but I had a few other things I wanted to do and forgot, but I did get those other things done!

Very busy!

Love the second design! The blocks are still busy, but there are a lot less of them.

Love the sashing too.

In passing the open door of a bedroom recently I noticed a soft blue colour scheme. I didn’t take a close look as blue is not my favourite colour, but I was reminded of it when I opened this project file this morning. I suspect that if I ever get a closer look at the room this first design would look great in there.

Or perhaps the second design for today would be better.

Very fussing applique blocks … except in the border.

The borders in both these designs are oversized, but I like it much better around the second design.

Dainty … in size (with 9 inch blocks) and design.

Interesting sashing, and love the whole thing.

I love it!

This project file is one of the few blue projects I have tried which seem to work.

Slight change, and I love it still more. I like the matching corner quilting designs in this one.

Some lovely real quilting for your pleasure.

I am not a fan of blue, but I rather like this design, and the colours work.
