Hei!! Jeg likte det første alternativet veldig godt!! Bruke blokkene som ramme!! Hva slags hvitt stoff bruker du?? Men uansett hvordan du velger å sette dem sammen vil det funke!! AnneK:-)

I like the sashing best. Nicolette at Dutch Comfort did a similar quilt for Quilts 4 Leukaemia. She put all the blocks together and it does look gorgeous, but it is a lot smaller.

I like the frame best...& with sashing in second choice ! Have a nice day.

Miranne said...

Synest den siste løysinga er best, sjølv om alle fungerer bra.
Gledar meg til å sjå det ferdige reultatet - uansett.

I love how those blocks look when they are together - the frame really catches my eye. You'd have a gorgeous area in the middle for your lovely quilting. Cute Kitty!!!

Marit, These blocks look great! I'm sure whichever setting you pick will be fantastic! Have fun! Happy sewing!

Bonnie said...

The frame is what caught my eye. But they all look good.

MichelleB said...

I'm going against the trend - I really like the squares set on point. But the frame is really great, too ;)

Andi said...

All so gorgeous.
But I quite like the 'on bay' option.

Brenda said...

great blocks. I like the frame, but really, you can't go wrong with any layout here.

My favourite is all the blocks sewn together in the frame.

But whatever you choose it will be a gorgeous quilt!!

Leslie said...

Wendz said...

Am loving the frame! On point comes second for me and then sashing. Whichever way it's going to look fabulous.

Britt said...

I have to agree the frame is so eye catching. Just stunning! Do you have enough blocks for 2 rounds of framing? I'd hate to have any blocks unused -they are SO nice. But I also like the on point & checkerboard layouts. Can't wait to see what you decide.

Loving the frame -- but I also love them on point. So much fun to have options!

Evelyn said...

Wow, you have been busy! And those blocks look so *perfectly* constructed. I have to say I like the frame best, just because it's so different, which is a nice compliment to the traditional block. But whatever you pick, it's going to be lovely!

Marit said...

Thank you all for your input!

; )

I have made 20 tiles (blocks) and have decided to split them into two tops:

a smaller one with 6 on point (30" * 45")

and

a bigger one with 14 in the frame layout (44" * 55")

I'll keep you posted!

Allie said...

Frame first, on point second - oh golly these are stunning!

Hej! Många fina förslag! Jag gillar ramen, "on bay" och "on top" förstås :)

I vote checkerboard and then sashing. So simple yet so pleasing. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers!

Those blocks are beautiful! Sometimes we give ourselves too many options! They're all wonderful, but the frame jumped out at me right away. But of course, I'm always in favor of including the kitties! :)

Doris said...

oving these all Marit! But I think I like the first pic best! Or that handsmoe kitty in the last one...just can't decide. ;->
