Woven: Over and Down Under Pattern top finished

 Good day, or should I say good evening.  I am busy in my day job and just now getting around to updating my blog.

My last entry was about a project, using the pattern Over and Down Under, and a fabric line called Georgia.  It's a line of pretty pastel fabrics and I was afraid the woven look would not develop.

Well I am now done with top, and you know, I rather like it.  It's like a Monet painting.  Up close, his paintings have blotches and swirls of paint.  But step back, and you see waterlilies.

My project:  up close you see squares of fabrics:

But overall, the woven look is there, if a bit subtly.

The top finishes at 56 inches square.  I like the deep purple fabric used in the border, and I saved some for the binding.  

Next: I may try this pattern again with a jelly roll of bright batiks.  Or I may cut scraps for some other projects I have in mind.  All balanced with day job and family of course.
