    Not sure which one of these I like better. What do you think?

    It really depends on what kind of quilt it would be for, and also on the fabrics that will be used with it.

    I'm thinking the light background would be better for a child's cowboy quilt; the black background would be more sophisticated for an adult's quilt.

    I think the boots get somewhat lost in the dark fabric.

    to me the boots look more 3D on the dark, but it all depends on the type of a quilt you are making. Enjoy, Huggies, Fay

    I love them both, but I'm a country gal at heart! My niece I'm thinking would love the darker one.
