More important, I just don't think she will like it!
Honest opinions please... should I try to find rose/brown fabric and alternate blocks or put it together like this. I will definately call him to come see it before I do any more than 3 rows...
It just isn't setting right with me, but then again I have been working on this since July so maybe I am just burned out
UPDATE - Here is the look I am going with. I am so much happier with this and I think the gal who will receive it will like it too. Don't know if her hubby will or not, but oh well... can't please everybody and since he is gifting it to her, I think it more important to please her.
