I think I'd show her the red and blue one because I think she'd change her mind. If she doesn't like it you have a new one for DGK.
Oops, didn't notice the last one was the same kind. I really like it too.

I agree. The lighter colors don't stand up to the main fabric. The rest are lovely!

I showed her deeper colors and she does not want anything bright or dark :?:

She won't come out to look at my fabric so I have to take it to her. Maybe soon I will find a combination she will like. I guess if you really like green that one is okay.

Thanks to everyone for your suggestions. I was just going make some up with what I thought she would like but I think I will just cut fat quarters of everything I have that I think will work and let her choose.

Thank you--You should see the fabric with the 3-D glasses. Those Butterflies just pop right out at you. Same with the Fish and Space.

Not sure if you want to buy additional fabrics, but Hoffman has free patterns made up for each of the three 3D fabrics, with color-matched 1895 hand-dyes. You can go here:

http://hoffmanfabrics.com/content/co...asp?FolderID=7

scroll down the page a little and find the free patterns, download them and it'll give you a list of the matching hand-dyes.

Butterflies - The red border or a thin gold strip and a navy border

fish - the right blue border

space is great

Bottom- Just another choice? Not my fav.

They are all very cool! :thumbup:
