Default Is anyone out there doing the Little Brown Bird quilt?

Hi all, I've been thinking of starting the Little Brown Bird quilt for awhile now. I had to get all the UFOs under control and I know the LBB will take me a long time. I have the book and the DVD. But I'm wondering has anyone done this quilt in a background that is not tan? I love dark backgrounds but I know there are a lot of colors in the applique so I'm not sure how the flowers and other details would show up.

Of course I will be using fabrics from my stash for all the applique pieces..... I have a fair sized stash. But I'm thinking I need to decide on the background fabric and get enough before I begin. So, what colors have you all used for this quilt? Does anyone have any pictures you would be willing to post.... Once I decide on the background I can start.
