I so totally get what you are saying Kathy. When I went shopping yesterday the things that I liked just faded away beside the blocks. I thought some of them would be strong enough, but they faded...I kinda think your fabric is doing the same thing. Its hard...on the 1 hand, you don't want it to take away from the center, but on the other hand you don't want it to fade away either. I think your choice will certainly work..but knowing me, I'd have to take the center to the store and look around a little more...just to make sure..:roll:
Your blocks look fantastic all together too! I'm trying to look closely so I can see your quilting! I'll hustle over to the new thread and hope you put a close up there..:wink:
