Quilter's Neighborhood - Completed

| Seasonal Neighborhood Quilt of Valor 71 x 80 |
I searched everywhere for setting ideas (Pinterest, blogs, books) and even found some ideas that I thought would work; however, a lot of them were designed for much smaller blocks and would require major changes to accommodate these 12 inch sampler blocks.
The setting that I finally chose from the book Sensational Settings by Joan Hanson also needed some alternations, but the top came together fairly quickly once I did a bit of math.
In retrospect, I probably should have placed the trees in the center and the houses in the four corners, but it is what it is.

Nope...the houses belong in the middle:) Good job.
ReplyDeleteNO no, I love the houses in the center as the theme of NEIGHBORHOOD.
ReplyDeleteYou did very well Nancy!
That's what I call a friendly quilt and it's perfect just the way it is! I love the tree/house placement.
ReplyDeleteOh I LOVE it! That's one my favorites! Well done!! I can't believe the pieces have been waiting so long for the big finish! I'd say you nailed it.
ReplyDeleteFeels good to use up something that has been laying around! Well done! :)
ReplyDeleteI really like this layout. I think it's unique but with these traditional and familiar quilt concepts and pieces. I think you did a great idea. I shuddered when you said you had to *gulp* do math. hehe.
ReplyDeleteI agree, the houses in the middle are just right. In fact it looks like that arrangement was the plan all along. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty and such a creative layout. It works perfectly!
