Thank you for your service to our nation, by the way.
I know your son is the Marine, but family is the one living with the burden of his being gone, so I always make a point of thanking the families that are lending our nation their finest young people.
Saving the patriotic fabric makes sense.
have you printed out the cutting instructions?
For color A, either color family or 2 yards of large scale print ... check
color B - - light colors ... check
color C - - dark scraps .... ? ? ? what have you chosen for those?
sashing and border ... calm fabric ... check
Sounds like you have it all under control, except for the dark scraps.
Looking forward to seeing what you are doing for the dark scraps ... am wondering ... are you going to use those colors from the large scale print?
