For those of you that don't have a golfer in your life, a mulligan is a do-over.
Here's my do-over
I received some great tips to getting good contrast:
1. Kelly of www.pinkadotquilts.blogspot.com told me since she has been using one of those red see-thru plastic viewers she has had very few contrast issues.
2. Judy and Norma recommended using a design wall and stepping back frequently.
3. Cornwoman suggested sticking with a more solid looking background.
Now we all can see how pretty it is!

ReplyDeleteAh, yes! Much better! And you still got to use those cute polka dots.
ReplyDeleteI can see the embroidery much better now. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteIf i am using colors and a busy design, I tend to go with lighter shades with a minimal amount of pattern, but if I am doing all black, I will go with a darker shade and pattern.

I like the do over.
ReplyDeleteLove that you've still kept the spots. Happy weekend ;-)
ReplyDeletePretty! Also looking at the block and threads through a camera view finder or a peephole will show you how successful the contrast is. But this looks great.
ReplyDeleteI have a red viewer and love using it. Sometimes I am surprised how many mediums I have when i think I've done such a good job!

ReplyDeleteI never would have thought of the red contrast viewer, that is a great idea! I am trying so hard to catch up, and never saw the first but the mulligan is nice. :)
ReplyDeleteLovi the blog and I totally need the red viewer...I think it will really help me with value choices!
