    Depending on how busy your blocks are the sashing will break things up; give your eye a rest. You can alway use a mix low volume prints as sashing to soften transition, it’d look more scrappy if that’s what you like.

    Yes totally agree! I just can't decide if it should be all one color (to help give your eye a rest) or the low volumes. I was thinking if I went all one color to do just one of Edyta's linen off white/ white colors. But then I was a little concerned that might be too stark of a contrast??

    @@thelittlequilter87 you can lay some fabric yardage on the floor and then place the blocks down with 2” space between each block and it’ll give you a good idea of what it will look like. Or, you can use some 2.5” low volume strips and lay them out around the blocks. Sometimes narrow sashing looks great too.

  • @myralewis1714

    Such a great idea. It takes a lot of thought for sure. To me, the blue bee on the fabric you chose was so delicate. Light and airy. I think with a neutral sashing it wouldn't compete with the bee block itself......maybe😊. I'm sure with your artistic background, whatever you choose will be perfect.

    I agree with you totally! I love the sweetness of it. The fabric, the bees, just all of it. Still trying to decide on a solid linen vs. a low volume mixture for the sashing/ background. Might have to try a few blocks out!

    If I were you, I would quilt more and talk less, never criticise my work, and change the name of my KZread channel.

I don't think you know how really good you are, and even how much better you will be very soon! I think you are very brave to go on this grand adventure into publishing!

    Is your tape a fusible? If yes, could you cut from lightweight fusible interfacing?

  • @thelittlequilter87
    @thelittlequilter878 күн бұрын

    Hello! That is a great idea! This tape is not fusible, but I do think any interfacing would work with this type of project. The nice part about purchasing it I suppose is just that it is already together in one long length vs. having to cut and sew together. The only thing would be that sometimes I find interfacing easy to tear and would worry about that from the standpoint of cutting it. However, I am certain that it could be done.
