    Purples and white...sounds great I love purple of course I love blue and teal and turquoise, and they all look great with purple.

    Just love this. The sashing really sets the "plates" off beautifully. If they don't like it...well just send it to me. Cause I love it.

    Wonderful job! what a great gift. Since blues are one of my favorite colors... love your selection of fabric. You should feel proud to show it off.
