How fun to get up this morning and see the beautiful things you ladies have found for me. I guess I am right on target, because the patterns I have considered so far are some type of log cabin, something with stars, drunkard's path arranged in a wedding ring-ish style, or a sampler!
Your messages have helped me to see that any of those would be beautiful!
Heck, if my niece decides she wants something else, I just may have to make a neutral quilt for myself someday when I have the time and money!
Thanks for all the ideas.
