    so far the blue looks the best...but it would look nice on a forest green background I think.

    If you go with a tan background I would go with something that is not in the antlers so that they stand out. If you use blue or green I would try and find something a little more natural looking....a batik with green leaves might be nice so he looks like he is in the woods. Very nice piece....show us a picture when you're done!!

    I think a pale lavenderish blue - sort of like the sky when the sun starts to set

    So I went to my LQS, which has a huge selection of batiks and McKenna Ryan backgrounds. Agonized over a huge stack of bolts and narrowed it down to these five - that's in addition to the previous 3!!! Added some greens and light blues. More choices people!! Help me!

    Just following the pattern on this one. I'm sure I'll make it again and try something different.
