Let the creative juices flow!!

Yea! I am so excited to be entrusted with your center. I am a little nervous because it comes to me first.....Ihope I don't lead it down the wrong path!

I'm sure you will do fine, missgigglewings! I have the mindset that I am NOT going to get stressed out about these borders.
This is not a judged quilt show. In fact, in looking at the center I received, I keep coming back to the thought a plain 3" border would work best next to the intricate center block. "BUT WHAT WOULD EVERYONE THINK?" I pondered. Then I thought of all the quilts I have made with simple borders..... I will continue to contemplate the center, and experiment, and am fairly confident I will come up with the right choice. :)

Hi Everyone,

Just curious if everyone has received their center blocks, and have 'put on their thinking caps'!

I am still waiting on a final decision. I HAVE TO DO IT JUSTICE! I have settled on 2 different fabrics that called out to me, but it was a tie so I don't know which one to choose yet. I am waiting on devine guidance!

Yes ma'am...we are doing fine! But quiltingnonie's center is being stubborn and giving me attitude. Solid color or print? print or solid? both?? See what I mean?? Attitude!!
