    Yes, my thoughts exactly! Thanks for sharing, it is always fun. That is my favorite part, picking out the fabrics.

    I would have used the cream from your floral print to use as background and find another color of green for framing. You took a lot of time to do what you have done. Please post when you decide and have it finished so we can all see it. Good job.

    I still like the white with black sashing--but then black and white are my preferred combination for everything!

    I, too, would have prefered a light tan-ish color insteak of the stark white. I would use the burgundy for sahsing as I think it rally would add a punch.

    I think I'd use tan for behind each burgandy flower, & a shade of burgandy for sashing & border. Gook luck.

    Agree about the cream..something alittle darker than the off white. Not sure about the rust.
