bbeyes,
I am thinking an all over design maybe edge to edge. I have a twice quilted panto system that I have not used yet. I was thinking the roses would be nice. I will look for a black and white print that has the colors equally represented. That way it will seem to flow from back to front. I will use the black thread for stitching, I think. and I will use the Hobbs 80/20 I have on hand.

I hope this helps you with yours. The design needs to be heavy because of the seams being all pressed away from the center to distribute the bulk. I don't want any popped seams if someone sits on it.
