Well, this is stage one of my Jelly Roll Race. I've got my 36 strips sewn together. Tonight I'll press the top and pick border fabrics. I'm still debating if the borders should be more grays or a color. I'm kinda thinking color. Maybe even the same color as the applique I'll add in the next stage.
My original plan was based on this project that I pinned from The Evil Website.
HOWEVER...yesterday, while I was scrolling for cat silhouettes, I found this one to the right (be sure to check the link thru Pinterest as there are other fab cat silhouettes too). I think one cat could make such a statement. And, as with the borders, still deciding on the original black I had planned or a bright color? I'm thinking color...
The Evil Website is full of ideas, but it just sucks you in to look for more, so in reality you never make any of them! Bwha-ha-ha!
ReplyDeleteLove that silhouette!It would look really great with a purple and black border--throw in a little orange and you have a great Halloween quilt. *LOL*
I agree with Janet -- only do an orange and black border and a BRIGHT purple cat. LOL! :)
ReplyDeleteI like this! It will be great with black or color. Can't wait to see what you choose.
ReplyDeletethe cat silhouette will look great on the greys purple and orange sounds good but other colours would work too, I think red and black would look good as they both work so well with the grey. You no doubt will be given lots of ideas from us all, best luck in deciding which to use,
ReplyDeleteIs your cat going to be black? If so I would mix color and black in the border to blend better. I love the cat!
