Yup, those are the quilt police :mrgreen: I meet some every once and a while, thank them for their opinion and do what I want on MY quilt.

Just ten or so days ago, I was at a quilt shop with my paint cards to pick some fabics for a lone star...a lady there asked me what I was shopping for, and I told her I was participating in a challenge to make a quilt using colors only from two paint cards that were selected for me, they were in shades of peach nd orange and I was going to make a lone star. She said that would be pretty and went on to ask me what color I was going to use for the background...I showed her the faint peach batik I picked, and she went on to tell me that it won't work unless I used a white or black background :roll: I thanked her and told her I will think about it. Well I made my star and guess what olor background I used :?: And it seemed to work just fine.
I would love to see a picture of your lone star.
Ask and you shall receive,lol.
