I think I mentioned that I'm not (supposed to be) spending any $ on new fabric. That is, until something at ebay or on sale at fabric.com (or...) gets my attention. (I'm bad, very very bad...)

Well, I fell in love with the Michael Miller fairies. I found an alphabet panel (24 squares covering 26 letters of the alphabet) on ebay for half price. My plan (yes, I'm creating one this time) is to make a 4x6 panel lap or crib quilt with each of the panels outlined in a set of border. I'm now choosing colors. What do you think of the following. Specifically, I'd like your opinion about which green fabric to use as the outer border of each square.

AND do you think I need to pick up the red? (I had a heck of a time finding a decent red.)


Thanks.

Here's the full panel / set of squares
