I've looked and then looked again, and each time I go back to the photo, I still prefer the two rows of HST's - but I see there is fairly equal preference, so Maureen it'll have to be what your quilting heart desires LOL!!!!<br />Love your vintage fabric purchases, they remind me of the tablecloths my Grandmother used to use, and I just loved them!!!!! While you guys are cooling down, we are just warming up, so good to see Spring, we've had some delicious days of warm weather, so nice to be able to peel some of the layers off (our beds and us!)Merilynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07017362688960778176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6116074259919602763.post-20523735790364909932011-09-16T16:18:14.149-04:002011-09-16T16:18:14.149-04:00I like the sashing between the hst...breathing roo...I like the sashing between the hst...breathing room...quilts by committee can sometimes make decisions harder...in the end, your choice is the one that counts.<br />MarshaMWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12770950294340069348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6116074259919602763.post-88750765238421216402011-09-16T11:22:11.397-04:002011-09-16T11:22:11.397-04:00I can understand your quandary and my first choice...I can understand your quandary and my first choice was the one on the right with just the HSTs but now I am not so sure.

It shows off the HSTs and it is a more unusual setting - maybe that is why it appeals to me.

The version on the left is an interesting one as well, more of a modern version. <br />I'm an antique-loving gal, so the right one is the one for me. <br />I haven't taken time for garage sales for a while, but when I do, I usually luck out with a super bargain or two. Garage sales are such a wonderful form of recycling, aren't they? And usually the price is right.Vivianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04255216150275846123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6116074259919602763.post-3398379428705130372011-09-15T23:35:18.610-04:002011-09-15T23:35:18.610-04:00I'm with LuAnn on this one.

What a lot of work you have put into this project!<br />Aren't yard sales fun?<br />Wish it was fall here.

That is going to be a great quilt. That's a lot of 1" HSTs. I am seeing a lot of those sort of leaves on the ground here, too. I really love fall.LuAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10805705253087258631noreply@blogger.com
