I like doing this to see what sort of contrast I can expect. In this case, things were a little muddled. This was not surprising considering the scrappy nature of the blocks.
Because of this, I chose to do a dramatic black sashing between the blocks. This served two purposes.
This layout adds contrast
By separating the blocks, the differences are less noticeable.
It goes without saying that consistency is the main challenge to block swaps. Each block comes from a different person using a different machine with different fabrics. By separating them with sashing, you just don’t see this.
Recently, I shared this quilt with my own Guild – Johnson County Quilt Guild.
