why not use the gray/brown text on white for the back of the quilt. I would definitely go with the multicolored on the front.

If I had money, I sure would, you could do so much with fabric like that. Penny

I second that!

Buy more material????? Let me think about that.......... I would say yes. If you don't you will not be happy with the quilt.
Go for it.

Go for it, grow your stash & your stash will hold the first fabrics until the right project comes along. Show us when you get the handprints quilts made.

Y'all are such enablers! I ordered it, of course. Finally finished the baby quilt I've been working on, so next up is finishing the April doll quilt, putting up some sort of design wall, then on to the school quilt.
