How's this for deciding on my colors: I'm going to make one in batik and one in Christmas fabric. At least the first few blocks, then if I don't want to do both, I'll make a table runner. (Can you tell I'm a Libra????)
Anael, if I let DH pick the color for the kitchen it'll be beige like the rest of my house. Of course I have so many quilts and artwork hanging you'd never know the color.
JenniKy and Anne-I also love the little 4" blocks and made a few for another project. They are fun--very time consuming but I enjoyed them (all 2 that I made LOL). I found that you lose the details of the fabric so you have to chose the fabric carefully. Example: my fabric had tiny pinecones on it but by the time I used it, it read as solid brown.
QE: NO YELLOW!!!
