what do you think? do you like the blue? would it look better all orange with blue binding?I'm pretty sure I like it (mostly because i don't want to redo my setting blocks), but this is going to be a large quilt, bigger than I normally make...I really want to get it right.
I showed it to my husband and I got a mediocre response out of him, so now I'm having second thoughts.
Hi there!
ReplyDeleteI've never designed a quilt top (although I've hand quilted some), so my opinion may not carry much weight . . .
. . . I really like the blue and orange together. I guess I prefer contrast to monochromatic.
Good luck with your decision!
hello beautiful quilt! this is so CHEERY! I love it. i must make an orange and blue quilt for myself now.
ReplyDeleteYou know, all orange would be really cute, but I happen to really like the blue with it. I think, at this point, it's personal preference. Do you feel like redoing orange setting blocks? Cause, really, the blue is darling.
ReplyDeletefor me...definitely keep the blue...it adds whimsy!
ReplyDeleteI love the blue! It gives the quilt a "happy" feeling when you look at it! Besides, I am Florida gator fan at heart (orange & blue are their school colors)!
ReplyDeleteI recently found your blog and I am completely drawn to it! Your colors drew me in and made me want to take everything!
Thanks for sharing!
i like it. i've said it before, anything you touch turns to gold. so just go with it, and i guarantee it will be the dolce and gabbana of quilts.
ReplyDeleteps i got my clips today! thanks!
ReplyDeletei am sending a little something something for morgan.
Jodi as Simply This That and the Other sent me over. Oh I LOVE the blue and orange combination. You get my vote to keep it as is! Love your photographs.
ReplyDeleteI like it. It is a modern combination of colors......so you are a 'with it' girl.
ReplyDeletei love it! (i'm super into orange and bright/aqua blues lately) however, if you did do it all orange with blue binding it would look super good too. hard decision.
ReplyDeleteI really really love it the way it is with the orange and blue. I think it gives the stars a chance to really shine.
ReplyDeleteWell its darling. I usually don't ask my husband's opinion. I guess thats why I started a blog!!! I love this quilt.
ReplyDeleteoooh! i love it. keep the blue!
ReplyDeleteit seems that you have the extremes of warm and cool, so maybe a warm tone setting blocks would work better?
ReplyDeleteYou could always make another mini quilt out of the blue setting blocks!
Hi,
ReplyDeleteI found your blog through a link on Crazy Mom Quilts. If it isn’t too late to have an opinion on the blue setting blocks here is my two cents; I would never have thought to combine blue and orange but I really like how the colors work together. Once the machine quilted is done I think this is really going to be incredible.
I love this quilt. I just found your blog and I love it. I am working on a purple and white quilt now but after seeing all your quilts I wish it was white with bright colors.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what you did with this? I'm partial to the colour combo because this is what we have in our living/dining room.
ReplyDeleteI love the blue & orange. It's just lovely... likely just not hubby's thing! I'm with the majority - you should keep it just the way it is. It is such a cheerful quilt top!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE blue and orange together, esp. for a baby quilt :) xoxo melzie
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful!! I love the blue with it! :) I think the blue helps draw my eye to the orange. Nice work!
