Opinions, Please!

I redesigned the quilt for Nathan.  I just didn’t like the way the squares were turning out.  I really loved this, and thought I could use the fabrics I had to make a version of it.  However, I really didn’t like the way my fabrics were turning out.  I think it is because my fabrics contrast so much, and the design would do better with fabrics that blend better.

So…I went back to my original design before I thought I’d try a bunch of squares.  It’s not done, but I am so much happier with it.  I really wanted to showcase the cute fabrics I found for this, and the little squares was not cutting it! 

So, now, here’s my dilemma.  I am not sure…do I repeat the blue gingham between the white and red fabrics or not?  I can’t decide.  Without it, it’s going to be about 82” long, so it can take a little length.  What do you think?

Please comment with your opinions.  I really could use some input here.  I haven’t asked my husband yet.  But, I know, if I ask “should I add the gingham”, I’d get an answer like “what’s gingham?”  or “sure”.

Is this for the quilt front or the quilt back? Can you show us what it would look like without the gingham?

I think if you add more gingham it will be more about the gingham than about the other cute fabrics. - Dawn
