hahaha!!!! i'm afraid i was doing the same as joan!!!

i kept coming back to it and looking, and looking again... and i was thinking... what am i missing? what am i just not seeing that andrea IS seeing!! mmm, it's just not right, how do i say this nicely??

rofl!!! andrea!! you're terrible!!! lol...
you had me for sure!!! lol...

i think i prefer the black... just looks better.... clean and un-muddled...
yup, black... def'...

Oh thank goodness, Jacquie. I thought I had "sucker" stamped on my forehead!

joan, i think we 'both' do!!! in great big red lipstick too!!!!
:Dhahahaha!!!!!
:p:p:p

ROFL!! She did get us didn't she!

Hate to say it, but she got me too. I was looking at it and thinking, "That doesn't look like something Abonda would do." I was trying to think of a nice way to say, "That stinks", but couldn't figure out how, but since I'm in bed today with a really nasty cold, that's my excuse!

Forgot to mention, I really prefer the black. Even though it's same old, same old, it really is striking with those bold colors in the corners.

Oh Judy I'm so sorry to hear your sick. It does stink when your not feeling well. Thinking of you with get well thoughts. :) I sure would NOT do something like that to a beautiful top like that! I think I will go with my original thought and do the black too. Although the green does not look that great in the picture, it really is pretty but I do know what you mean about being clean and striking. It was just so funny that I just had to do it........... next time that I do something stupid for real I hope you guys will pm me and tell me the truth.... I am never one to get upset just to let you know...... Love ya all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ha ha Someone has gotta keep you guys honest...

So very cute.

Good grief!! I go away for a couple of days and come back to a garden border!!! I have no problem at all with more black, which is my vote, too.

Maine, I took your top with me and the ladies in the LQS helped pick out fabric to go with it. With a plan and fabric, all that's missing now is time. Soon.....

What are you trying to say there....that you don't like the garden fabric????? LOL
No hurry on the the plan you have for the center, but I'll be interested to see what you and your friends came up with.
