    I'm amazed at how good it is looking, considering that I did not think the original fabric would work at all. Keep going!

    It's wild but when I am working on something that is bugging my brain I let it sit for a day or two and then go back to it... sometimes a little break can help you see what you didn't see before...

    I agree with the black...show us a pic when you finish it..

    Keep going, its awesome. If you frame it in a solid black it will really help to calm it down. Can't wait to see if finished!

    It is actually great fabric for an OBW. I've done one in it, as well as in the blue. Here they are.

    I think you'll like it better once it's together. It looks good to me!
