WIP Wednesday 8/3/11

Curvy block is done.  It is now a quiltlet or a table topper - not a WIP any more.  I had fun practicing curves; was it much easier than I thought.  Now to decide what to do with it.

The quilting is all done on the curvy block.  All I need to do now is find the left over batik I used for the border and bind this quiltlet with it.  I'm showing the back because the quilting doesn't show up as much on the front.  Ay de mí.

Curvy Block Grows Again

Thank you all for your suggestions.  I pulled all my purples, greens, burgundy, and rose/berry and tried to make them work, but they just didn't do it for me. Of the greens, it had to be the green of the leaves in the floral print - a sort of bland avocado green and I just don't have any big enough to use as the border.  Then of the purples, they weren't of the right hue, same with the burgundy and rose/berry - ugghh.  Color can be so troublesome.  Then I found a batik that didn't minimalize the block.  It had some orange, brownish tones, even some muted green and in the end that's what I chose. So here is Curvy Contained (my name for it) - no longer a potential orphan block.  Now to quilt it.

Remember that curvy block on my Design Wall?  Found an inner border for it.  Now to look for the next border.  Any suggestions as to color?
