Small increments of change

A bit more planning and block construction later... can you see where I'm heading here?

BEFORE:

Feeling a bit dark and heavy...


AFTER:

... a bit more light and airy.

Getting better.  In this layout I still would change the third block in from the left on the top row... and obviously, I need one more 6" block to fill the hole on the bottom right.  The empty space under the stitchery will be filled with either flying geese, or applique leaves... haven't decided yet.  BUT I am happy to continue on and make some more blocks, and then mix them up even more!

Well...I like the before AND the after LOL! Looking good, Suz!

I think I like where you are heading. And I vote for flying geese to fill the gap. Just because I like flying geese. But I also think appliqué might overwhelm your stitcheries.

I liked both layouts! Can't wait to see how you finish it off.

I like them both, but I totally understand striving for light and airy!
