I'm very uncertain of what way to go with fabric. I'm not good at visualizing how things will look. I have many busy, darker reproduction neutrals (they fascinate me, for some reason), but I think those might be problematic to use here. Whenever I see a monochromatic quilt, I feel an urge to make one, so I'll start my fabric thinking along those lines and keep my eyes open for a nice neutral. I also have many multi-color FQ bundles on hand, so the problem will be in deciding.

Thank you, those who posted photos of your beautiful samplers, and thank you, Dotty, for starting this group!
