Experiment with different layouts from "summary" of Sunday Morning Quilts by Amanda Jean Nyberg,Cheryl Arkison
When you've finished making blocks for a quilt, it's time to start thinking about how to arrange them. This is where the fun really begins, because the layout can completely change the look of your quilt. One simple way to experiment with different layouts is to lay your blocks out on a design wall or the floor, and step back to take a look. Try moving the blocks around until you find a layout that you love. Don't be afraid to play around and try different arrangements – you might be surprised by how different the quilt looks with just a few small changes. Another option is to take a photo of your blocks and use a photo editing program to try out different layouts digitally. This can be a great way to quickly see how different arrangements will look without having to physically move the blocks around. You could also try cutting out paper shapes that represent your blocks and arranging them on a grid or design wall. This can help you visualize different layouts before you commit to sewing the blocks together. Remember that the layout doesn't have to be symmetrical or follow a specific pattern – feel free to get creative and try something new.- You can start sewing your blocks together. Just make sure to keep the overall design in mind as you sew, so that you don't accidentally sew blocks together in the wrong order. Experimenting with different layouts is a great way to make your quilt truly unique and showcase your individual style. So have fun, be creative, and don't be afraid to try something new!
