Better for your borders to be up in the air than your background as with me, Losie!!! still no can decide. I kinda wanted dark rich blue - but of the few UFOs I want to finish, one is already a rich deep blue batik. So, black not really what I had in mind... still considering red violet or chocolate or iris in Mirage from CT - although my friends say nothing will top black.... [and coal now out of stock] then to complicate things I went to Aie's website -

WOW!!!! I love that first quilt "Water Lillies" even more than AOTH!! she's such an amazing designer [only wish she could hand applique better - I agree with all of you...]
oooo....correction - just went to CT - they cant seem to be able to decide whether to keep Mirage "coal" on there or not... I just ordered Mirage coal and indigo - enough for background and border for each 4.5yd @ 2.96/yd woohoo!! [as our friendly family owls would say...gotta get their pictures up!] I will decide which I'm using when it gets here next week :lol:
