It Takes A Village

Thank you Ann Caddy!

Ann’s comments really helped me to make decisions about how to manage the Flower Pop quilt so that it has better proportions and doesn’t overwhelm me with needing LOTS more blocks and growing really big. My mind had been turning over mixing up things when Ann commented and made some suggestions about shortening the rows and using those blocks to make the quilt longer.

I’m loving the mix of tall and short flowers, rather than lining them up short and tall. Now I’m working more with color placement than height placement. And I’m reminded that I loved my Maine garden which had all sorts of flowers of varying heights and colors.

Now, five more blocks to make, and they are going much faster now that I’m well over the learning curve. And note that I’m sure I’ll be moving blocks around as I go.

Thanks Ann!
