I tried to tone down the yellow...
The yellow in this has bothered me the whole time...can't figure out why, as I do know that yellow is a very wild color...bright, as it were. And I did want a yellow and blue quilt.
But I just put the borders on this, intentionally trying to tone down the yellow. Not sure it really worked, but I do like the results. Maybe it no longer shouts "YELLOW"?
What do you think? Did I tone it down any?? (Yeah, just ignore the quilt inspector there. He has to be in every quilt picture, I guess....) I promise this is my last post complaining about this yellow.

I think it is just marvelous!! However, I am so sorry it is bugging you--I know it was A LOT of work, and the finished result is bugging you. ;o( But I think it is bright and cheery and a wonderful quilt. If it continues to bug you, why not donate it for a charity auction and then make another one for yourself?? You are a bargello expert now!!!!

I have followed your saga and I suspect that you will still question the yellow but you shouldn't. It is absolutely beautiful.
In the event that you just can't get used to it, I would be happy to pay shipping so you can send it to me. I would treasure it.
