'The Ottoman' is finished...
Comments (20)Awww, shucks ladies. You make a gal want to do a happy dance. I have to tell you that DH came downstairs this morning before work and asked, "Have you gone on 'your' forum yet? What else did they say?". I let him read the comments and he was absoultely tickled! Considering there are many of you who are the doyennes of substance and style, including some pros, he knows if there's honest critique, suggestions or praise to be given, I can count on the GW'ers for an honest opinion. Thank you one and all....See MoreTeddie Bear quilt top finished Pic
Comments (8)Now with their faces on, I can see how the little square above the bow-tie makes up the bear's muzzle. Awfully cute! Another pattern to add to the to-do list! I had doubts about using a dark border when you first mentioned it, but it looks perfect with the bears and the other dark squares and triangles. A great job!...See MoreBack Again to FINISH this!!!

Comments (45)Ahhhh, paint colors. On my screen the mock up by blondell looks like a very creamy rich color. I'm bummed that on the decks when looking at manchester tan and normadic dessert they are more tans and not at all golds/yellows. My concern is making this work with the rest of the home as we have the golds/reds going on and the house is so open. I think that is why the designer chose the above listed colors because they matched the granite and tile and then had a much deeper color on the same strip that I could use in our great room. I want the kitchen to work and match, but also need to keep in mind my great room, dining room and furnishings. I have all new furniture and can't possibly start over. I'm going to have to start testing lots of samples, but hoping I can find something not too tan or too beige. Wish it wasn't so difficult. Perhaps more of a creamy neutral would work? Any more paint suggestions? Thanks :) I really hope I can find the perfect color choice to give me blondell's work of art and still match the rest of the home. I'm now concerned I'm trying to marry tan and gold and they will be a sure divorce before the honeymoon is over:--OO)...See More9PatchandBowTie pics
Comments (14)Thanks everyone, and Sharon for testing it for me lol!!!! The lady does so much for others and once a month she helps in a soup kitchen. I hope I am as active as she is when I'm her age. She only uses the wheel chair on bad days, so that's why sis wants it big enough for her to curl up under. This one could be larger with 9inch blocks. I think it will also make a great QOV. It goes together really fast and doesn't have a lot of seams to match. Rosa...See More
