    I've been playing with this idea. Do you like the black background or would you choose something else? What other color for the background? Or scrub the idea altogether??

    I have to say it looks amazing with a black background, and a whole quilt made like that would be stunning!
    However, looking at the other blocks I think the majority are picking lighter backgrounds... J xxx

    Fun leaves Jane! The oranges would be nice against a cream or beige for the swap. The black would be great for a maverick block for your quilt-??
