    Ordered the pattern Surprisingly Red!

    I love this pattern and the red is pretty but I want it for a wall hanging in my living room. The room has brown leather, orangey/brown chairs with beige cushions, orange striped pillows, a muted orange accent wall, etc. so I want something more subtle. I want to bring in some of the blue and will add more touches of that in the room.

    The focus fabric will be the outer border, the steel gray/blue will be where the red circle is, the Plaster Ivory will be the inner border, the spikes in all the other colors, and the light blue replaces the green.

    Wow that is a gorgeous pattern and your color selection is terrific. Sure looks like it will take forever to do if it were me, so I hope you can work faster than that!!! It is gorgeous. Is that a Judy Neimeyer pattern?

    LOVE LOVE LOVE your color selections! Did you pick out the other corresponding colors, or were they 'suggested' at (wherever you found the Serenity line). Gorgeous mix!

    I picked out all the colors/fabrics. I am still playing with it a little bit, mainly now looking at contrast so the bottom three solids may go because I'm not sure where they would be placed. I have the cart loaded and will probably pull the trigger today.
