Orca Bay is coming along
At last the top is coming together without having to pick out seams. Here it is without the borders (those just might have to wait until I get to Arizona next month). While I absolutely LOVE Bonnie's layout of Orca Bay, I opted for an alternate design. After looking at the original design layed out on the bed, one of my girls said the quilt was "too busy" and it made her feel dizzy (and I wouldn't want it to cause a seizure!). But I do think I will try this pattern again as originally designed, but with different colors and less busy fabrics.

I like your alternate layout a lot. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteI did this layout too, I like the diagonal lines it creates
ReplyDeleteGreat quilt, it was worth the unpicking. I did my share of it too, lol.
ReplyDeleteI am also doing the alternate layout with the more distinctive cross-hatching. Love yours!
ReplyDeleteNice layout! Mine is really busy too, but I was just in a hurry to get it done and didn't play with alternate layouts. It was such a fun project. Congratulations on the finish!
