Suggestions via Texts
 |
| sneak peek of QOV #149 |
I asked my "quilt consultants," Marilyn and Brenda, what color of sashing to use, and both said, "Dark." I pulled a couple of black fabrics, and via text, they both selected the same one - a black tone on tone.
Do you snap photos of your projects and ask others for advice via text messages?
That is really pretty!
ReplyDeleteI've texted pictures of WIPs (both stitching and knitting) and sent to a friend...but haven't asked for advice or suggestions.
Yea for you to use all your scraps and it looks fantastic.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty. It has a "rich" feeling about it.
ReplyDeleteI do sometimes text fabric choices to friends. But I'm more likely to take things with me to my card group or to coffee with friends. They are always willing to give advice.
I love it!! They were so right. I don't have any text buddies who would even know what I was talking about. Lol...
ReplyDeleteThat is a good idea! Need your number, LOL!!
ReplyDelete! Nine patch quilts are some of my absolute favorites. Yours is beautiful. I don’t really have any text buddies who know much about knitting. So no, I have never texted for advice.
ReplyDeleteBlessings, Betsy
Oh, what a great scrap success story! Nice work! I usually take my own pic and ask myself which do I like better! lol
ReplyDeleteGood choice with the dark sashing! Nope no texting here:)
ReplyDeleteYes, I do use texts to send photos and ask for suggestions. Congratulations on finding the bottom of the stash. I've never been good about that; it's something I need to work on.
ReplyDeleteOh yes. Absolutely. I ponder via text with Allison and my pal Karen. Both excellent knitters
ReplyDeleteNope but I’ve been know to ask opinions on the blog!
ReplyDeleteOh my, do I ever. I frequently request advice from my friend Sharon. She has a good eye and lots of creative ideas. She does the same with me too. And like Mary I ask blog readers sometimes too.
ReplyDeleteI haven't yet, but it sounds like you got VERY good advice. That sashing is BEAUTIFUL!
ReplyDeleteOh, what a beautiful use of scraps! Isn't it a good feeling to empty a bin? I love a good nine-patch quilt and your sashing is perfect. In answer to your question, yes. My co-worker / ranch wife/ friend / quilter and I often shoot each other texts asking for advice. It's often very helpful to have another set of eyes and point of view when you are in the midst of making a decision. Three of my co-workers are quilters and we are always bringing in projects and asking each other questions. It's funny to watch the cattle buyers pop their heads over our shoulders and comment on what we are discussing.
