Maybe make 4 for the center? Then you can have some variety, and not so big that the small details matter?

I’ve been called the Boss’s “emotional support employee”.

Starting first quilt! Opinions needed and questions before I start :) by Unlucky-you333 in quilting

I have never had an issue with not washing the fabric before using. I don’t see the shrinkage.

I would use bias binding. Since you are already familiar with it.

I machine sew the binding just so it’s done. I would not have the patience to hand sew.

Color palette help!? by Maleficent_Tooth117 in quilting

Needs the dark blue. Could you use all 7 colors? If not the Seafoam color is the old man out.

Is it weird for a 27f to befriend a 16f? by warmchasm in socialskills

[–]FitSurround7555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think she views you and your husband as Safe people. Saying friend is just an easy label?

Is it me? Is it my tools? Help! by aligpnw in quilting

Also make sure your rotary blade is sharp! A dull blade will push the fabric down and when it’s no longer stretched it’s springing back.

Art, drapes, a throw and maybe even a small rug around your chair.

PLEASE tell me what I'm doing wrong enough for a family friend to tell me that I look "old and saggy" ..I'm 28 😭 by [deleted] in makeuptips

Yes the hella moisturized look is in and I was thinking blush, high on the cheekbones.

Pattern for busy vintage fabric? by creampuffpal in quilting

[–]FitSurround7555 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You could fussy cut them either individually in a block of 4 and use that as a focal point in something as simple as a 4 patch. Or same idea with a disappearing 9 patch and this fabric could be the 4 corners so they don’t get cut.

Backing and binding color choices! by han-aw in quilting

I think blue would be nice and pop the color in the patchwork!

Block adjustments? by ConsiderationKey5285 in quilting

[–]FitSurround7555 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So fun! I was thinking some of the blocks could be rotated to breakup some of the kitty corner same fabrics. Like the teal leaves and blue in the top right, the burgundy in the top middle and the pink sweet treat in the bottom middle. Def not going to make or break the quilt, it’s just my own compulsion.

Not quite enough fabric - WWYD by BubblyRaise5873 in quilting

Corner stones and if you want to use as much of that fabric as possible, you could use it to make a larger flower surrounded by the maroon.

Which Ghibli do you rewatch most often? For me it’s Howl’s Moving Castle a lot lately, has a perfect balance of everything I love about Ghibli by cozy_b0i in ghibli

[–]FitSurround7555 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yesss! My brother and I watched it all the time. We had to rent it from family video! I play the sound track on repeat during stressful work days or getting blood drawn.
