Light

QuiltingKrazy 09-28-2011 11:04 AM

I really like them both! Dark is more "drama" for sure.
But my first thought with the dark one was....
Oh how the white cat hair would show up all over that! lol
When you have a house full of furry critters you think things like that first!

They are both just striking. I think I prefer both. You could name them Morning Serenity and Evening Serenity. Beautiful job.

Go to the dark side!!! Or.....I like the idea of a two sided quilt, one light and one dark.

Dark

GagaSmith 09-28-2011 12:33 PM

I like both but the light better.

Lady-T 09-28-2011 01:05 PM

The DARK!! Gives it a "richer" look

Kristin in ME 09-28-2011 01:06 PM

My vote is light!

grammatjr 09-28-2011 01:34 PM

both are gorgeous - but the black reminds me of a stained glass window - so that is my favorite

QKO 09-28-2011 03:32 PM

Wow, sounds like almost an equal split between light and dark! OK, we've decided to offer both of them. We think they're both beautiful too!

BTW, I like the light better, Cindy likes the dark. :mrgreen:

I absolutely love the light one. Black is not my favorite around Chtistmas time. Great choice of fabrics.

Xstitshmom 09-28-2011 05:54 PM

I'd have to go with the dark.

Susanna10 09-28-2011 06:17 PM

Dark

Sewlmatesister 09-28-2011 06:39 PM

I LOVE both of them, honestly. I have kept the picture because I have some fabric that I love and this would be the perfect pattern!!!!

cjsparks 09-28-2011 06:46 PM

light

leiladylei54 09-28-2011 06:50 PM

Both are beautiful. If I had to make only ONE choice, I guess it would be the dark, but the light sure is a close second!!!

sewlisa 09-28-2011 07:07 PM

The dark background makes the colors pop. I just love popping colors! :-D

luckylindy333 09-28-2011 07:08 PM

I think one for the front and one for the back- they are both very pretty!

Gladys 09-28-2011 07:39 PM

They are both beautiful.

kiffie2413 09-28-2011 07:54 PM

At first the light one just said, "pick me" but then the black one says "pure elegance"...so, I would make one of each, and send the extra one to....ME!!

Both.

agdetrick 09-29-2011 02:51 AM

Both are very pretty!!!

vote: both!! (I would just make one of each)

sassy lady 09-29-2011 02:56 AM

I like both tell me what the pattern is and can you give the directions I would to try one

Rann 09-29-2011 02:56 AM

The dark makes the print pop!

SherryCat 09-29-2011 02:57 AM

DARK!

Candy Apple Quilts 09-29-2011 03:00 AM

Both of them are gorgeous! :D :D :D

Yooper32 09-29-2011 03:04 AM

For me, the dark is more dramatic.

sandyms 09-29-2011 03:12 AM

Dark!! Both are beautiful!

WMUTeach 09-29-2011 03:13 AM

I vote dark, but I love the pop of any color on black. You should see what I am wearing! Black makes any color look good!

Edie 09-29-2011 03:18 AM

piepatch 09-29-2011 03:24 AM

I vote for the light, but they are both very pretty.

Drew 09-29-2011 03:25 AM

Light gets my vote.

toadmomma 09-29-2011 03:26 AM

the dark really brings out the color.

teddysmom 09-29-2011 03:27 AM

I like the light much better.

Joset 09-29-2011 03:28 AM

I like the black it really brings out the colors.

Fabricnut 09-29-2011 03:32 AM

I like them both but I have a cat so I wouldn't go with the dark if it was to stay at my house.
