I saw a similar quilt on houzz...so I mocked it up in Paint. Do we think this would need a border? General ideas/suggestions?
Thanks ladies!

Mmmmmmm, mmm, chocolate! I think I'd gain five pounds if I made that quilt!
Those are almost the exact colors I had plans on using.
Too matchy-matchy?
Is this similar to Jenny's "Katies Quilt". Except you used a 9 patch and she used a 16 patch.
I don't think so Jean. This was the yellow and white one that I posted from Houzz. I don't want to mis-speak. So I'll look back into it.
I really like that design. I can't to see what fabrics you pick out and how its gonna look when its done. Im sure it will be great!
Looks great, I did a a snow ball quilt for a friends son over the summer. I recommend doing a couple blocks, you might get super bored lol I love matchy matchy, makes sense in my brain. Can't wait to see the fabrics too.
I think it looks nice! :) Can't wait to see what it looks like finished either way you do it. :)
I have that quilt sitting on my sewing table. It's my UFO this month and just needs to be sandwiched and quilted. I framed it with black and used the snowball fabric for the 3" border and the other color for cornerstones.
You are quite talented to be able to do that with a computer. I love this design. Sink into the chocolate and don't sweat the calories
MMM that pattern looks awfully familiar, the first quilt I made in quilting class, but it is set on point (I think I have the terminology right), I put 3 borders on mine.
wow Leonie that is beautiful and makes that pattern look totally different when put on point. I think the borders frame it perfectly, so I vote yes on borders
I love the pattern! Is that the one from an earlier post? Can't wait to see it finished.
Leonie----I love that quilt! The colors are so sweet and set on point really changes the design! I know I am an odd duck when it comes to quilting.........I don't see it till it really starts coming together. I can't twist patterns in my head like I need to sometimes. I really love this design on point!
Sew Crazy for Quilts------I love your design and wish I had your talent to do a mock up in paint! I have to sew it together to see it come together and seeing what you did on the computer makes me think I should start using more graph paper to design patterns. I can't resist chocolate, but not sure what colors you were thinking of doing this in. I think it is a super looking quilt........love the added snowball blocks. Sometimes it is just a simple little thing that takes those squares to a whole new place! (Can you see why I don't design patterns?????)
:icon_bigsmile:Nice quilt. Snow balls and nine patches. And I never heard of Houzz until I saw your post. The things you learn.
It gives you great space to feature some quilting in the center squares.
