Double Delight Plans

I liked both fabrics I chose before, but I have settled on the sunflower borders.  I want to make this king size though.  To do that, I will add another fabric in yellow into the blocks and then alternate the colors of the blocks in "boxes" or rings.  I will start with a cheddar star block in the middle of the quilt, then surround that with yellow star blocks, then surround that with cheddar star blocks, etc. -  kind of like making ripples....If you click on the picture, it will show you a bigger image!

Great choices for an alternate color scheme for Double Delight. Also fun that you made the flower looking blocks in two different color combinations for a different secondary pattern. Also.. sunflowers in the border.. an inspired choice.

I put the photo up as a reminder of what I pulled colors from.  I really like the look so far!
