As I said in the last post, it was time to get serious about the corners of the Color Wheel quilt and there was no better time than a Sunday night, sitting with my Sweetie and watching “Lord of the Rings”…..
I started playing with lots of different design ideas…..
….and then came upon the idea of turning the 1st grey “border” into a big circle…..
Then it was back to the design sheets to figure out what to put into the circle. This is my final idea…..
….make the big circle in the medium grey, the next layer in the lighter grey and the final triangle in the light grey (as in the very middle). I am thinking to make the “spoke” circles in colors that match the squiggle.
My last thought is to put 1/4 of the color wheel in each of the corners to finish it off as it began.
I played with it in Powerpoint and got a reasonable picture of what I am thinking…..
The next step will be to draft it out full size and see if I can make all of the details work, but that probably can’t happen until after my studio is back to a semi-normal state!!!
I know that these plans may change MANY times before the actual quilt is finished but it sure was fun to start out with a few ideas and see those morph into something that I really like!!
