I always told my DH that if he didn't like what I made, to keep it to himself!! lol And he did. The old saying, If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all, definitely pertained to my quilting projects! Make what you like, otherwise, you won't finish it. Work with "colors" you like and you WILL finish it. Still want to see a picture..I love working with black fabric, especially with bright colors. I believe in you.
