    Default Shopping my stash-which would you use?

    The first picture is what I want to make. I know it's not much difference, but would you use the solid blue for the flower center or the pillow print? And I'm not sold on the box colors.
    I should go buy more fabric, shouldn't I?

    I would use the floral print. The blue seems out of place.

    I think I would shop my scraps and find a nice bright yellow print or solid for the flower center. Failing that, I would probably use the blue because on my monitor it seems to pick up the blue in the print.

    I vote you use what you have. I think any of the colors would work. USE UP THOSE SCRAPS!!

    I don't know what to think. Thanks for your input, ladies. But if I can't count on you to support my fabric habit, who can I count on???��

    I think the floral print would work great for a flower.

    I like the floral fabric for the flower center best. I think it looks the best of all, and it will also make the pig's blanket match his/her pillow. Usually bed linens do match, so that's my vote.
