DESIGN WALL

Physically on my design wall is this quilt.  I recently bought the gold fabric for the inner border, but in putting it up on the design wall with the quilt center and the outer border, I'm not happy with it, so will be looking for a new gold, something that reads a little darker and flatter - not so bright - and more like the solid (mottled) gold squares in the quilt.  The background of that fabric is that way, but the gold 'paint' is brighter and I just don't like how it looks.  There will be more to write about this quilt at a later date :)  (Linking to Patchwork Times)

My Easy Street piecing is finally done and in essence, I considered it still on the design wall until it was, which was late yesterday.  I tried to get a shot of it outside in natural light, but there wasn't a really good place, i.e. clean place, to lay it down, so right on the dead leaf-covered lawn it went.  I also took a pic of it indoors draped over kitchen chairs.  I've yet to decide if I'll add borders or not.  I like it this way, but I also like what I've seen where others have added borders.

Easy Street will probably go into the UFO pile until I decide whether to add borders, or to quilt it as is, and if the latter, I need to wait until I get some other projects quilted to free up my basting pins! I'm not going to buy any more of them!
