And just because you make the idea real doesn't make it great. The IDEA for a brightly colored cobblestones quilt sounded great, but once I got all the blocks on the design wall I was decidedly unimpressed. There's too much of this that just looks like mush to me.
Now, that "to me" is the operative term here. Just because most folks think it's OK doesn't mean that I do.
I shall continue wrestling.

I totally get what you are saying about this one. Fun to make, delightful fabrics...maybe needs eyeball resting places or organize groups around a center square. I'm sure you will come up with a great solution!
Being the scrappy look lover that I am--I like it!! ;))) But maybe some tone-on-tone fabrics in coordinating or rainbow wash colors?

Cobblestones leaves me feeling a little uninspired. Wondering how it would look on point. That is usually my solution to mush.
My first thought was looks like a pile of gifts from a large gathering (shower, holiday, etc). Lots of color but no movement or pattern to focus on.
Ah, retirement! What a lovely way to enjoy lunch ;-). Totally agree with you on this one….a puzzle for you to noodle on, can’t wait to see where you go (now hearing “Oh, the Places You’ll Go….” Thanks, Dr Seuss ;-)
