T...These are beautiful and will make a great SITP! There are so many beautiful color options for this quilt - I want to make this quilt with all possible colors! I think the reason so many people chose blue and white is because the original was made that way. I even debated between making mine clean looking or scrappy looking. I opted for scrappy, which makes it look very much like the original.<BR/>It takes about half lights and half darks, so yeah, you probably need more lights. Contrast is very important to see the design, depending on whether you want the design to show or blend in.Shelinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09870112367076954109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27934479.post-22478327379638503112008-03-10T14:57:00.000-04:002008-03-10T14:57:00.000-04:00should work up gorgeous Gail ! yes, a few lighter...should work up gorgeous Gail ! yes, a few lighter shades would be helpfulCherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10292382302931335587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27934479.post-23652862327367595202008-03-07T13:02:00.000-05:002008-03-07T13:02:00.000-05:00This is going to be beautiful!
