I like this week's block, but not my fabric choices. The green pinwheel gets lost in the lilac print. It would look better with a darker shade of green. Ah well, it's just one block, not a whole quilt, so no big loss.
Yes it's interesting how the green does get lost amongst the lilacs even though it's not a related fabric. The greens are just too close in value, and I think you are right that a darker green or even a dark purple would look good.
a wonderfully coordianting pallette -- just too similar to make any of them sing. :-( As you say, at least its one block, not a whole quilt you cut! :-)
Welcome to our weekly block party! This is a group blog for sharing our successes and struggles with the week's chosen block. The challenge of completing the weekly block is open to everyone. The block and a link to its online instructions will be posted on Fridays. If you would like to join us, please follow the link to Hetty's blog, or leave a comment on a post indicating you'd like posting priviledges here. I'll be happy to add you as an author -- even if you are only doing some of the blocks :-)
Authors to this blog are asked to label each post with their name and the week# of the block represented by the post. This way we'll all be easily able to see all the blocks for each week as well as all the blocks by any one person. Thanks for your cooperation!
