Please help me decide, I was thinking White, nah, then orange,humm, help please

Very cute! It all goes to personal taste! I hope you can find a fun print to go on the back! I recommend SID and small stippling around the Sunbonnet Sues. Some pretty stitching in the sashing would be nice also!

Very nice!

I think Sue would like a nice pink print. How about some of those big dot prints?

thank you for your opinions, The quilt isn't for anyone special, these quilts have become my babies, I just can't let them go yet. I am OCD and rush into things just to get them done, I have (in my opinion) messed a quilt up, just to get it done. I think I will be patient and see, I do like the idea of Lady T's idea, and then I like the pink idea, and the stippling around the Sue sounds really good,I will post when finished, I stipppled a dresden plate all over and over the plate, it took away from the plate, I am a little disappointed, but we learn that way hu? Thanks again ladies and I really mean I have learned from your posts, and can't wait for more ideas, tips, and pictures. Brenda
