I ordered my book today, I bought already black background but I was told that black is difficult because you don't see the stitches when hand appliqueing. Then I bought a yellow background... not convinced of this one. Finally I bought a green background... not sure. The problem is that this quilt will be for my DMIL who should come to live with us this year or begining of next. Her bedroom is yellow, courtains have flowers with green and orange, so I wanted a matching quilt.
I am going to pick the rest of the fabrics and tell you more.
By the way. Am I in the list?
