Anyway, I think it is great, especially with the small teal inner board. Can that fabric be printed on an off white? It is to die for!!!
Have a Blessed Day!

:-D Awwww Thanks :-D Marcia - your enthusiasm is making me grin from ear to ear. Thank you everyone who replied with great ideas and feedback!
To answer your questions Marcia, the fabrics are -
Autumn Tonals by Seattle Bay (Brown Leaves)
Arabesque Paisley 4083-MR by Kathy Hall for Andover Fabrics (Brown, Teal and Red Paisley)
BeesWax Collection by Seattle Bay (Red Leaves)
Classics by Jo Morton (Red Diamond Print)
Seems Like Old Times by Ro Gregg (Soft Sage print)
Tonga Batiks by Timeless Treasures (Teal and Blue Feathery Batik)
Interestingly, the Arabesque Paisley is the sister fabric to the Paisley so many people loved in the Maple Leaf Mug Rug tutorial.
That particular one I can still find on eBay, but unfortunately I haven't dug up another source for the brown, teal, and red paisley.

I actually did do experimental print outs on off white fabrics, both homemade and commercial. It changes the whole look without white behind the layers of ink and it looked dulled and muddy. :( I don't really know what the best solution is but I thought it might be better to tea dye it after to change the white. Although I did not give that a try yet. The other problem is that these corners are printed on the largest size EQ fabric sheets and I only found them in white.
You have a blessed day too Marcia!
