    No, I like the idea of the 'kitchen' but there are not very many fabrics out there... then I was thinking- Neutral... since alot of the 1930s quilts were made with muslin ..

    Whatcha'll think.. NEUTRALS ?????( no muslin pls)

    Well more like lite beige and bleached tans.. hmmm well there's really no 'wrong' fabric when it comes to the twist.. I was thinking any fabric that anyone deems to be neutral.. Ive seen some with beige and teeny tiny spots of blue, or tot tans and beige's... as long as its 98% neutral color then it would work.. think of what muslin looks like and work from there... I say have have fun and run with it..

    It was just a thought...
