THE CHECKER BOARD QUILT - Step 3
Now that we have an idea on how to make the background, let's move on to the motif.
What motif are we going to use?
Once we have decided on the motifs that are going to be used we need to move on to placing them on our blocks.
They can be placed in a traditional way, meaning in a geometrical way, or they can be placed in a randomly way:
The two blocks on the left are placed in a geometrical way, but the two blocks on the right have the motifs placed in a randomly way.
Next step will be to associate the colors that we had decided for the background with the blocks that will be designed.
