A OBW would be a thing to consider. Test it out with a set of hinged mirrors. Do you have 6 repeats tho?

I've been working on a quilt made with this fabric. Its hanging on my design wall. DH comes in the sewing room today to tell me about his toilet insulating project he's working on, and he looks over at my design wall and snurls up his nose. Now I know this fabric is "loud" but come on, is it that bad? He's never snurled his nose at my work before.

I think they were doing some type of drug. Its vintage fabric so chances are good that LSD was involved. I've never done LSD but if this is the outcome I dont want to either!

How about a Bow Tucks Bag with a bright bottom fabric? Too me it is a beautiful piece of fabric.
