It looks great!<BR/>And that floating 4-Patch. One of my fave patterns. I agree with Mary - a dark blue border would look great on that. And I think the idea of some of Gwen's triangles would be a good counterpoint to all those squares. And yeah, I would change that white block too. I didn't notice it till you mentioned it, but then it really stuck out. Sorry.<BR/>Sounds like you had a great retreat!Sharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07498453213057487052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7261687409766332535.post-30706431784795052122008-09-16T08:19:00.000-04:002008-09-16T08:19:00.000-04:00I agree w/Mary: maybe a midnight blue?

This fabric is a favorite of mine for borders on scrap quilts in nearly any color.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7261687409766332535.post-42118112229593532092008-09-16T06:57:00.000-04:002008-09-16T06:57:00.000-04:00floating 4 patch is one of my UFO's - I think I ha...floating 4 patch is one of my UFO's - I think I have the 4 patches sewn together...The Calico Cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06319271181930512880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7261687409766332535.post-53535320411270830602008-09-15T16:03:00.000-04:002008-09-15T16:03:00.000-04:00I think the 1/2 square triangle might be a nice si...I think the 1/2 square triangle might be a nice size for a lap or wheelchair quilt if you're thinking of donating it. Large quilts are difficult for the elderly to handle in a chair I think.<BR/><BR/>I'd use a blue border for the floating 4 patch quilt - blue is a neutral for me! I didn't notice the white block until you mentioned it by the way.Mary Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07801947879882584734noreply@blogger.com
