Micro Chameleon

Today I am revisiting the chameleons. I have decided to use a lighter background fabric and I am wondering if I should use a smaller grid...a micro version, of course.

This is how the Micro Chameleon compares to the original version. I have mixed feelings. Because of the smaller pieces, I lose more of the variation in the batik prints. Decisions, decisions.

The toucans think the smaller chameleon looks tastier. The cow thinks the chameleons must be defective if we can see them. The micro spools don't want to get involved.

Sally, it is such a delight to read your blog! Your quips about your quilt blocks and kitties are so fun. In my head I named them Toucan Samuel/Steve, Susie Cow, and the chamelons Darrell, the other brother Darrell and Bob. Hope you have a great day! Sandy at sewhigh.blogspot.com

Big or micro, it is fabulous.

Oh I think the micro is just as fabulous as his brother Darrell and his other brother Darrell. (Too funny Sandy what you have named them.) Maybe you chose just the right fabric - but I don't see a problem with the smaller version's fabric variation.

LOL... such fun design wall chatter going on!
I love the idea of a variety of sizes of blocks in the same quilt...
so in conclusion, I vote for all of it! LOL

So funny! But what do Molly and Buddy think? Maybe they want to chase the butterflies near the micro spools?

Maybe you could make a 100 vermilion chameleons.
