I used bleached muslin for the background. You can get it pretty cheap at Joanne' on sale.
But ti was the navy blue that I found in a quilt shop up the mountains that really made it pop. I still have 2 1/2 yds of coordinating pieces to use as sashing in the big quilt that I will make one of these days. I am going to get some more of the navy blue next weekend when we go up there if the lady has any left andd incorporate it into the big one as well. Maybe have 3 borders, with the dark blue being the middle one. It felt good to finally make something for myself :!: :D Most of everything else I have done has been given away.
