I think it is something to do with the flow of colour. The blue strips in v6 stand out strongly which draws me away from the way the colours in the strips flow and blend, which for me is the more interesting bit of the quilt.

I think it could be better if the strip in between the blue went at angle, so that the strips that are diagonal now are in line with the edge strips.Krishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05252548374309659800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593114644785141187.post-57788200610034258302009-09-07T17:33:56.076-06:002009-09-07T17:33:56.076-06:00I really like the movement of this piece but I hav...I really like the movement of this piece but I have to say, I am definitely NOT a blue/green combo kind of girl.

I think for me to read water, then seeing the change in direction without demarcation (the blue strips) is key.MommaMarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18158011891565911447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7593114644785141187.post-57599013190275505352009-09-07T14:57:37.859-06:002009-09-07T14:57:37.859-06:00Your quilt is awesome.

What if you turned those strips into either v shapes -- one going one way, one going the other -- or in a diamond?beanie ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10494027689224596032noreply@blogger.com
