don't forget Black and/or White go with just about every color, Black and teal would really show well together

Everything I put with it last night looked muddy (dull) in comparison. I'll look harder this weekend. I really want to use this fabric AND my stash.

Then I decided I would use some left over puppy paw prints by Debbie Mumm and make it into a 'mug rug'. I don't have the right brown to go with that one! (And the background on this is the 'new' teal and there's nothing that matches that either ... grrrrrr!)

At this rate I may just grab some scraps just so I can say I completed the darn block!
