New un-thoughts

loving this red and tan palette

  1. interesting contrast in this journey of warming the palette by taking out the starkness of the red on white hankies

    1. Yes - I love the red and white hankies, and they were the impetus for this large medellion quilt - but you are right. It was the starkness of them that disturbed my eye.

      I took them out , put one back in, took it out too.

  2. It's fascinating to watch your process on this piece; I love the color development. As Mo said, much warmer.

  3. This palette is more enveloping!

    1. I so agree - It's nearly a month now and the piece is together and folded up in my project pile.
      happy new year!
