On the outer border is Signature dark khaki with So Fine 405 in the bobbin. The inner blocks has YLI ecru on top and Bottom Line 402 in the bobbin. The ecru was great in the background fills and light/medium blocks, but I'm going to throw it away because it was SO linty. It is not as noticeable in the dark blocks as I feared it might be - you can see it, yes, but viewed from a few feet back, you just don't notice it as much as you notice the overall look.

This is absolutely gorgeous! This is the kind of work I love to do! And pardon my ignorance if I should know, but is this pattern available for purchase or is it your cousin's own design? Thanks

It's a pattern, I think Moda. I'll ask her when she comes and picks it up this weekend.
