The only thing I can think of is if you change up the sawtooth sashing and make it more of a sandwich-2 white strips with a narrow red one between them. It would expand the white areas a little. <br />On this quilt I think you're just going to have to accept that the applique will be the only star and not any background quilting.<br />JMHO of course.Eileenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11791592886458322904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2955311616182275105.post-40514507666889431682010-12-28T09:19:01.800+11:002010-12-28T09:19:01.800+11:00Great that you've started on the Cherry Tree. ...Great that you've started on the Cherry Tree.

Then add wide borders with some appliqué on the drops. <br /><br />That way you could have two twin quilts that would be sisters but not identical twins. Even if you had to go out a buy a couple twin beds it could be pretty spectacular. ;> <br /><br />raineyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2955311616182275105.post-89929248979526412992010-12-26T15:40:42.489+11:002010-12-26T15:40:42.489+11:00I love your new R & G BOM Janet!

Yes, I agree, it's probably a good idea just to leave your Baltimore for a while. It would be a shame not to be 100 % satisfied with the result after all the work you've put into it. The right solution will come to you, I'm sure.
