    How pretty I really liked your other fabrics but I love these. .
    MImiknoxtaylor your polka dots are really cute. Who doesn't love polka dots?
    White pine love how bright yours is how fun. .

    Emma, I don't know whether it's our cameras or our computers that make some colors so true and some really off. My rug is actually green.

    Mimi, I hope you can use that black polka dot. It seems to ground it or something.

    whitepine - love those brights. i prefer the ones labeled with the larger letter.

    Evie, looks good!

    Mimi - my favorite is the top picture, but both are so fun.

    sunlite - way to go, girl.

    Sula, gotta say your reds will be sooooo pretty, but must admit I am a bit surprised -- no florals? You have the most beautiful collection of florals and you seem to use them a lot. Can't wait to see your red family. Just make sure there is good contrast so it doesn't all blend together.

    Judy, I was thinking the same thing about Sula's ....surprised at no florals. Maybe she will surprise us, with tulips and roses.
