I finished the star points on the queen sized medallion quilt I am making for our bed! The pattern (Sarah's Wedding Quilt from Fabric Trends magazine) calls for a layout like this first picture.
But I'm also thinking of making the layout like this picture:
DH and I like a larger quilt with plenty of overhang so the second layout would be a way to make the center of the quilt bigger. On the other hand, the top point of the star might get tucked under the pillows with this layout and I think that would look a little strange. I'd also have to make more blocks for the pieced border and I'm low on scraps for this quilt, but I think I could manage it.
I really need to try it out on the bed but DH is working hard to get some AC into our bedroom and that means lots of drywall dust and stuff everywhere in our room - not a great place to try out quilt layouts.
