Re the snail trail with the purples, I looked at what size I want to make and there's not enough fabric (sorry BW - not a complaint to you!) I wanted to make a throw for a little purple sofa in the living room, which is all scratched up by Barney cat! :twisted: It needs to be around 48" x 54"; but then I was on Tisha's Mexican Star thread and Klue posted a link to a folded border for her quilt. And on the same page was this combo of snail and jacob's ladder which I prefer AND because it introduces a third fabric, should mean I have enough!

What do you think? And what would be a good colour with the purple? I'll go look in my stash! Oh BW - you've got my brain a buzzin! I love it! :D
