Purple faces with orange noses and black lips aren't usually that popular. Art in our quilts is different than art on our canvases for many of us, I guess.
I fully agree with you, TanyaL, but you should know from experience with past threads on this topic that 99+% of the posters are always pro-scrappy and that those on other side just don't bother to reply. Furthermore, the artful arrangement of color is not all 'matchy-matchy' as so many imply, it is what makes a design truly sing.
