Some Old & Some New Grannies





I really went scrappy here! What do you think, I am wondering if the blocks and arrangements of fabric in each block is too different from each other to be in one quilt? I would appreciate your input!

    They are just absolutely gorgeous...love them all!

    I definitely think they could all be in the same quilt...some white sashing would be all I think you would need to combine them beautifully!

    The design solidifies the congruity, regardless of how many or how few fabrics you use.
    Additionally, any mix of fabrics over 20 is an instant "match." I love your cherry choices!
    This is going to be a beautiful quilt!

    I love it and think that changing the position of the lights and darks in each block makes it so interesting to look at!

    While the colors aren't the same and the patterns are scrappy, the overall color story is totally similar enough to go well together! All the colors are bright and clear, they look gorgeous!

    Join them with some kona snow or other fabric to tie them together. I like the on point version.

    I love it, but was wondering if you were going to add stips between the granny's or to just sew the white to white.
    I made 1 set of strips haven't even cut them out yet, or made the second set of strips.... I'm slow....it'a an easy peasy pattern. looks more complex than it is.
