The Spotted Winkel Is a Flimsy

The Spotted Winkel,

my AHIQ project for the 

Playing With Scale challenge,

is now a flimsy.

This is the center portion of the quilt.

You  may notice that the two red circles

have been edited out and replaced with string circles.

I loved the scrappy reds but they 

read too much as a solid

in relation to all the other circles.

This is the upper left-hand corner.

You may notice that some of the circles are now smaller

than the previously-smallest 3" diameter circles.

I like the increase in variety of sizes.

This is the lower left-hand corner.

One of the removed red circles was cut down 

(2.5" diameter)

and at that smaller size it works just fine.

This is the lower right-hand corner.

Another 2.5" circle was cut from the edited-out red 

and used as a center for the four-part orange dotty circle.

I like it much more this way.

And this is the upper right-hand corner.

I slashed the large aqua circle and added a third

strip of the yellow spotted turquoise

so the two outer ones didn't look so odd.

I'm elated to have this one off the design wall

and ready to be pin-basted.

It will wait in third position

of the three I hope to finish before July 1st.

I think I can . . .  I think I can!

Edited note added later:

Quilt top measures 49" wide x 70" long.
