DESIGN WALL MONDAY - 6/24/13
Check out all of us who link up with Judy L. at Patchwork Times
on Mondays.
We have some awesome stuff on our walls!
Well, THEY do - ME - not so much sometimes - ;))
===

I got the top section together -
And it looks pretty good -
If I must say so myself - ;))

I even managed to do a bit better -
Matching those silly seams -
Except for the one on the left in the first photo -
But I figure three out of four ain’t bad - ;))

Then I dug out some of my Greens -
To see which one(s) might show up better -
On the Dark Gray -

And narrowed them down -
To the three on the right -
Plus the original three on the left -

So I cut out a bunch more leaves -

Played with the spacing and colors -

Pinned some to the left border -

And put the border up on the design wall -

Then in an email to LindaJ - HERE -
I rambled on and on -

Right now I'm trying to decide if I want to work on the "leaves" or on something else for a while. The floral applique is getting big and unwieldy and I really need to move it to the bigger design wall in the hallway - but that wall is currently covered in LHQSQ blocks - and I need 14 more of them before I can put that top together - and I really don't want to take down 85 blocks and then have to put them all back up again - so maybe I should just make the rest of them and get it done with - but the "leaves" are so pretty and I need to work on the spacing and colors to get them to look right - but this wall isn't big enough - I really need the other one - so maybe I could use the kitchen island instead - but it's got stuff on it - and I would have to clear that off - and it's almost nap time - and sew it goes - haha - ;))

Then I decided to play with the top border -
And the top left corner -

Pinned some more leaves -

Put that up on the wall -

And I thought that the leaves looked pretty good -

UNTIL I took this photo -

Now I don't see leaves at all -

I see Christmas lights - ;))



Talk to you later - gotta go - gotta sew -
