How's everyone doing? Judith - I saw your HST's on the other post. Looks good!!

Everyone please keep in mind a couple things:

* good, strong light/dark contrast is important in the success of these blocks ((please avoid a light print paired with a white background fabric))
* there are lots of choices available for the light side of our HS blocks in addition to the white, white tone-on-tone, or off-white mentioned in the instructions. Think: neutrals or small prints with a white or off-white background.

I'm a huge Bonnie Hunter fan and she has a wonderful article on Neutrals.

I encourage you to consider using the types of prints shown in the first image in her article. However, I'm not so sure the Winney the Pooh print further down in her article would work in our blocks. LOL - - -
