I had hand-pushed a lot of seams last night after trimming the last seam but I still needed to iron everything solidly. Then trim them all up. Them being what I hoped would be the last batch of squares. Got them all done and just put up a couple photos of the whole mess up on the wall. 16 squares remain. Now to just look at it a short while to see what needs some nudging.
I love it. Very striking!!! Will be a great quilt.
Is it actually brighter/denser at the bottom, or is that a photo artifact? In any case I like the effect of twigs (or germs) sinking to the bottom of dark water.
I think you’re seeing a combination of light fall off and ne having to overlap squares more at the bottom. Thanks Naomi!
