Quilt in a Day Forums

I made this quilt top and now I am wondering if it looks too busy. It is a wallhanging or can be used as a table topper or couch throw. Should I change the fall leaves fabric to a solid color? What color?

How about another flower in the center? That might balance it out. Lori

It is busy but I like it. IF you change the fall leaves pattern, I would choose a solid color in the same colors that are in the fall leaf fabric or a soft golden yellow....then, quilt a pretty design in the solid color blocks. Very pretty quilt. Interesting.

It doesn't bother me. The border fabric is a busy print so it looks fine with that. If it were me, I'd hate to unsew it so I'd leave it and be happy with it. But, if you really don't like it this way, I think I'd try what zfatcat suggested and put another flower in the middle. Either way, it's a fun fall quilt.

I think the purple in solid that is in the center square would be nice. I think it would bring it all together. MHO

I like it the way it is.It may be busy, but it is a beautiful busy.
The colors are just right for fall. I would use it as a table topper. Flo.

I lIke it...........

Thankyou ladies. I think I will try adding another flower to the center, that would require the least ripping out.LOL I didn't make all the flowers alike and I had not noticed how the sunflower on the bottom left didn't seem to fit in. I will move that one to the center and make another one to fit into the corner and I think that will make it come together a little better.

Thankyou all for your input, sometimes it takes a different pair of eyes to take a look and see what a quilt needs. I knew I could depend on my wonderful friends to help out.

I didn't even notice the different flower. Lori

I think it looks great. Wonderful job.
