Design Floor Friday - Sue Sew Style

Welcome to another edition of Design Floor Friday!!  This week, I'm here to share last week's visit from my friend Sue.  She brought a couple of quilts for a consult.  Unfortunately, I forgot to take a photo of the quilting consult with Needleb.  :o((

Below, is the process we went through with Sue's newest quilt project.  It's Missouri Star Quilt Company's Courtship Quilt pattern.  You can also find a video tutorial by following THIS LINK.

First, I set a (rough) perimeter and put out the center squares:

Then, we stepped beck to check the value placement:

Next, we made a few adjustments:

Sue decided there was too much purple, so we switched things:

I was left alone while she went to get her DH.  You KNOW what happened then, don't you?!?!  I played with a couple of the stars:

Upon her return, Sue decided that she liked what I had done, but the color balance needed some love:

Here is a closer look at each of the stars...

Star One is a royal blue and medium of teal (?) or aqua:

Star Two is a grassy green and deep purple:

Star Three is medium purple and light blue:

and...

Star Four is dark green and lavender:

After dinner, we did a quick layout of the inner border:

Sue's is smiling in the photo above because...

This is the product of our efforts:

Until next time...
You would be smiling, too!!!
