Braided is definitely OUT!
I love the idea of Brown's, greens and Blue.
I cannot wait for it to warm up to get the gardens all revived! I think that's why I started that "small project" and have just kept adding things that remind me of being outside.
I'd put birds on the darn thing IF I could find some decent pictures to copy and applique.
I will add additional butterflies rather than vines and flowers.
All great ideas.....This demands a trip to the fabric store. I don't keep blues in my stash. I went through and looked at all the browns, they all had something in them......Greens are mostly Christmas Types.
<twisting arm> going to fabric store!
