Roseville Album Bottom right corner block

I’ve gotten the bottom right corner of the Roseville Album finished.  

I made a few changes…the pattern shows lots of dots.  I edited it down quite a bit.  The other block I’m using as a bottom corner doesn’t have any dots, so I’m taking away some here..and will be adding a few there.

I know this pattern is whimsical and free spirited, but I need a bit more balance.  It’s just my personality!

Since I did the other corner blocks in  more realistic colors for the leaves, I did this one the same way.  I hope I haven’t “painted myself into a corner” with the color change?  We’ll see when I get to the appliqued border?

This is how the Roseville looked the last time I showed you pics.  It’s now too big to get a full pic of.  Maybe by the time I get the last corner block done it will be nice weather and I can clip the top to the eaves of the garage, which is where I take all of my outside photos?

I used the blue-greens for the large leaves.  They’re fabrics that I’ve used in other blocks and I wanted to repeat them.  I’m questioning the bottom right leaf, but for now it stays.  I repeated the colors of the birds that appear in the top, bottom, and side panels.  Then added in a few dots.

The block will sit under this panel.

My bottom panel doesn’t have much green.  I thought the corner block might balance it out?

  13. Ann, I absolutely love your Roseville Album Quilt. Your color choices are just beautiful and, I like the way you have the ‘different’ leaf. It gives the eye some more interest instead of just having them all the same.

  14. Amazing how one block at a time makes into such a wonderful quilt… amazing job, Anne

  15. Your Roseville continues to inspire and amaze. Heck, seeing the side panel on rose carpet I just might take a short cut and just do the side panel with beautiful “border” fabric.

  16. Ann,
    I am so impressed with your work! Absolutely beautiful. I love to see a quilter who still believes in hand work!! Your talent is a gift to us all. Thanks
