What can I say, the garbage cans really bring out the blues, no? ;) |
Enter another Encyclopedia find ;) If anyone's interested in the block pattern, I'll be updating the INDEX with it (and a few other items) as soon as I've finished (1) fancying it up and (2) writing tutorial instructions for Lynne of Lily's Quilts.
But in the meantime, my dearest thread aficionado-consultants... the quilting question remains: match twinkle twinkle with "iron grey" Gutermann, or stick with an off-white Aurifil?
I suppose now's as good a time as any to mention I'm thinking parallel straight lines on a diagonal (you know, in a tasteful sort of way). So once again, any and all thoughts are welcome (and much appreciated!)
Linking up with Lee of Freshly Pieced. For real this time. :)
Cool! Love the night sky. You can call yourself ecologist. Taking inspiration from garbage cans! I say go with the grey :-)
ReplyDeleteVery cool! I say grey. I think white in any shade will be too stark a contrast against the black.
ReplyDeleteI think whichever you choose will be great! That is such a cool quilt.
ReplyDeleteWow that's an impressive quilt! I'd use thread to blend in as much as possible and not take anything away from the design.
ReplyDeleteOk... first, this is just plain awesome! I love how the borders around the stars have the little bits of blue in them, perfect! And the stars themselves, oh my giddy aunt! I love them.
ReplyDeleteAnd second, you know how i feel about grey... go with the grey! (but know that what ever you choose it's still going to be awesome!)
That is very very cool! I want o make one! I s that I compliment. I hope so cause Imma make one!! Nice!
ReplyDeleteThis is a great design :)
ReplyDeleteIt's so pretty and unique! :) Gray, gray, gray!
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely amazing! I can't wait to see theblock pattern, it is a stunning quilt. I think go for grey thread.
ReplyDeleteI just gotta say... I love that pic. Reminds me of home! Seriously. I have been renovating/rebuilding a room myself the past couple of weeks. And yes the recycle bins do bring out the blues! You are a hoot! Go with the grey thread! Love those stars!
ReplyDeleteYep the grey, and yes true life really brings out the colors! ;)
ReplyDeleteThat is just simply stunning!
ReplyDeleteOH love love love love!!
ReplyDeleteWow this is amazing! Can't wait for the tutorial!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely gorgeous! I'd go with the grey - it would blend into the background and kind of blend into the stars I think?
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Chiming in to recommend the grey thread. I quilted a navy quilt with white earlier this year, and it doesn't leave room for any mistakes!
ReplyDeleteAwesome!!! I agree with gray.
ReplyDeletePretty, and I'm on board with grey.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. I would use gray.
