First of all - LOVE the funky background of your blog - made me just want to look at the street art! Its a good reminder to use tracing paper or even clear plastic sheets to audition quilting lines - will do that tonight on mine! The stripes are really effective in this piece - just super!
ReplyDeleteI love the background of your blog as well! I never thought of auditioning quilting lines. I am not that good at following lines. Great idea.
ReplyDeletegreat idea to audition quilting lines - I'll have to try it!
ReplyDeleteDeveloping your own style must feel very rewarding. Auditioning the quilting is also a good idea. You are very disciplined in your work... a good example to follow.
