    [ATTACH=CONFIG]565254[/ATTACH]OK, Thanks Judy. I guess these will be my fabrics... I'll use the darker blue for the blocks and then perhaps the light blue and maybe a dark red somewhere in sashing/border. Will cross that bridge when I get to it. So for now I'm saying I'll use the second set shown here. I keep waffling between the two blues. What do you think?

    Just Jan I love that zig zag fabric. Thanks Judy. It's very cloudy today and I can't seem to get a decent picture that shows the colors very well. I'll try today if it clears out. Ladies pretty choices so far.

    I love all the fabric choices posted. I'm dithering between two different colourways. Both are somewhat outside my normal comfort zone.

    The green would possibly be used for sashing/ border.

    Just Jan - I'm partial to the second pic with the darker blue. Although both are really striking. I too like that zig zag fabric.

    Jan I like the darker blue has better definition between colors I think.

    Belfry, I like both of those, but have a hard time saying no to an orange, so I think I would go w/ the orange.

    Jan, the vendor for those prints is P&B Textiles and is called Folklore by Jennifer Sampou. I'm sure they are a few years old, but I did find the light colored one on Etsy a year or so ago. The gold just happens to be a perfect match and that salvage just has a CP written above a W - I don't know what that stands for.
    Thanks Kassaundra for confirmation on the choice sets. I truly appreciate the input from others as I have such a hard time making decisions some times.
    Judy - that darker set is actually a lighter olive background with the flower print and then the TOT is a darker olive. I think the gold would complement the flower print. I'm leaning toward the teal colored combo.

    Jan looks good to me -- on my monitor I can't tell much difference in your dark blue, but I would vote for whichever is darker.

    Belfry I like both sets of fabrics. But I think I would prefer that you work with which ever is closer to being inside your comfort zone. I'd hate to have you dislike the fabrics and they get stuck in the UFO drawer. However on the second picture, don't use both the orange and yellow. too close in value. Or were you deciding on which of the two to use as your medium?

    Everything is looking so festive!

    I like the purple fabrics. Both look nice though.
