what about a mottled or marbled yellowish green? I did that on my hunter's star with a very barely green batik (almost white) and I love the look!

I think the advice about making the quilt totally washable is good. One of the dangers of chemo is being so vulnerable to infection. Unfortunately hospitals and clinics aren't the most germ-free places. Having said that, I would have loved a quilt to take with me to treatments and especially to the hospital when the doctor put me in isolation because of an infection. I called it protective custody!:)

Can you get ahold of some Packers fabric? Try Jo-Anns?
