I am inspired by Freddy Moran but I am not Freddy. I am inspired by so many others including Gwen Marston, but I am ME and my style involves elements of their teachings and my own experiences. You will find a way to make whatever you work on be YOURS. Another friend of mine, Nancy Near Philadelphia (blog name) just finished hand stitching a Steam Punk design - feel free to pop over and scroll back a bit to see how she conquered the need to make the design hers.Quiltdivajuliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15593385265961892847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264679873028408512.post-4120633327994863582020-08-25T06:03:36.300-07:002020-08-25T06:03:36.300-07:00I would prefer the propeller to come forward rathe...I would prefer the propeller to come forward rather than the floral triangles. I know you are partial to the striped sashing, but have you considered no sashing at all? The lighter triangles would form an interesting repeat, and you could use stripes in the border or the propellers. No matter what you choose I commend you on your construction.<br /><br />Andrea in MOAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264679873028408512.post-63791884591708216162020-08-24T13:57:11.301-07:002020-08-24T13:57:11.301-07:00You ultimately came to the solution that I thought...You ultimately came to the solution that I thought of right away.

Reducing the size or values would help; as is I didn't even see the propeller. On point is a good idea. I agree that it could be hard to blend Kingwell and Moran, but if anyone can do it, you can!Libby in TNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13709701255260085505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264679873028408512.post-25163352208714412242020-08-24T08:59:51.136-07:002020-08-24T08:59:51.136-07:00For a steam punk look, I do think less background ...For a steam punk look, I do think less background and more emphasis on the propeller is what I would focus on. When I think steam punk I think of blacks, grays, bronze (for the propeller) and dusty (probably grunge like prints?). Just my thoughts and musings. :)Yvonne from Quilting Jetgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15705160384198590025noreply@blogger.com
