Well, surprise, surprise I am still undecided about how I should finish my rectangles. I hope someone out there in blogland will help me. Eeekk. I really love the rectangles and would hate to ruin the whole quilt because I don't pick the right background and backing.
So I took some pictures and laid out some options. I even took my husband with me but I really think our thought process and taste are totally different.
Option #1:
The dark brown as the border inbetween the blocks and the blue/teal fabric for the backing.
Option #2
This blue background and the brown geometric type flower for the backing.
Option #3
The brown geometric fabric for between the blocks and the blue for the backing.
I know this is a little confusing, but how about one MORE option...
Option #4
Any of the fabrics above without a border between the blocks and just a border around the outside with the blocks but up against each other. I guess I was specifically thinking about this with Option #3. I like the brown flowers but thought it might be too much between the block.
I sure hope some one can help me or at least tell me which options to throw out. I like process of elimination just as much as picking my favorite.

I like option 1 :) the others are nice, but busy to me. I am sure that whatever you chose it will be great!
ReplyDeleteI kind of like option 3, but I tend to like bolder patterns.
ReplyDeleteOption 1 makes the blocks pop and that is good. But, there is something about option 3 I really like.
ReplyDeleteI like option 1. The block colors really pop with that dark brown.
ReplyDeleteI like option #1 the best-the blocks pop!
ReplyDeleteI love option 1!
ReplyDeleteI like the option of no borders around the blocks, with the brown floral for an outside border. If you really want borders I like option 3. Good luck if you haven't already done it!!
