What she sees as "glare" I see as more graphic. I happen to like more striking and graphic quilts but it is a different look and I have no idea about the historic part. I see C as the other end, with all the parts more integrated and nothing standing out much.

For the "Washington Streets" blocks, how about reversing the colors, and the light - I seem to remember most quilts of that era using a simple light colored fabric for the "background" which would place the light in the very center and outside edges. Not that I'm a student of quilt history, but my grandmother's tops almost all have a muslin/"Bobbie Bentneedlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18395307988414655977noreply@blogger.com
