I was always planning on doing 20 blocks but I think if I just do one more row it will throw off the symmetry of the quilt since I already have 5 diamonds. If I only do one more row I'll have 6 diamonds and two top half's and I think that might look off (and if I did two extra rows that would make the quilt bigger than I wanted it to be (and extra 24 inches long is too long). I would like this quilt to be a little bigger but I don't want it to turn into a great big square. I might do some funky piecing as a boarder but focus more on the top and bottom (maybe a few extra rows) to give the quilt more of a rectangle rather than a square shape.
I think I need to sleep on it for a night or two - and maybe have Mr. Quiltapotamus take a look and give his very non-quilting-expert opinion too. Speaking of sleep its late and I'm so very tired. Time to go to sleep.
Thanks for stopping by - see you tomorrow!
It looks awesome. I really like the colours... So soft and sweet.
ReplyDeleteThat looks great! I would say that if you want to do more rows, you will have to do two rows. Finish off that darker diamond at the bottom of the photo, and add another row below it, so there is a half diamond, in the centre of both the top and the bottom. Just my opinion, though.
