    Default When fabric choices dictate pattern change

    I saw this today:
    @ http://vickisfabriccreations.blogspo...s-tube_08.html


    Decided to make it "halloweeny" so obviously switched colors but picked wrong fabrics if I wanted it to look right as dictated by the pattern. As shown here:

    Its not letting me post what I consider to be yuck and my switcharoo that I like

    Sorry about the different orientations. It won't let me fix it. The last pic is the layout I like. My advice if anyone tries this is do not use busy fabrics

    The pics 2 times isn't your fault. The board techies are trying to fix it. I love your colors.

    I like it with your busy fabrics! You can hardly go wrong with those tube techniques. They are so cute!

    I like the runner, sometimes busy works well. As for your picture issues, you need to do your editing on your computer with what ever editing/photo software you use, then upload the edited picture.

    The only thing I am not crazy about is the greenish looking fabric. I would have used another color such as black. Nothing wrong with your two Halloween fabrics.

    its very hard to tell from the picture but there is green in the orange fabric. But I think black would work too. Thanks for your help
