QNSue ..... your blocks look terrific on that cheddar coloured backing!! I think you should go with it for sashing, providing of course, it is Extra Extra Old Cheddar! SEriously, it's not at all what I would have thought about, yet I really think it could be perfect!

JanRN ... thanks! I too was starting to think I had set myself up for the impossible of getting the yellow into every block. It's taken a different mindset than when I did the FWS, and at times a disappointing one, as I see fabrics I "want" to use, but just don't see the how, in order to keep the yellow in. Plus the contrast issue, but I'm getting better at keeping any lights in a dark frame, or not using them at all! Now, as for you and your basic black, there's nothing wrong with that .... though there's also nothing wrong with you stepping outside the comfort zone! I'm sure we could all help you come up with all different possibilities when you are ready to start down that trail!!!
