thanks. I read it in one of my quilting magazines, so thought I would try it. If you do a solid black, the mottled color (at least on mine) was orange, would be great for Halloween.
This was actually a scrap quilt, but called for over 5 yds of the black solid, ended up having to go to a JoAnns other than my usual one, cause it was right after Halloween when I was looking for the black solid, and the local ones were temporarily out of stock, so bought a full bolt of it and was able to use a 50% off coupon, so made it worthwhile.
