    I prefer the light color... it has more of a calm/soothing feel to it.

    hmmmmmm dark reminds me of BOLD, light reminds me of cozy and homey. my personal taste would be for the light but the dark would make a very eye popping quilt especially in dark purple!

    I want to thank everyone who took some time togive me a clue as to the prefered BG on these arcs.

    So far the count is:

    Make two quilts- 9
    Dark - 17
    light- 30

    The lights have it! So now I will choose a selection of lights that will give a slight variance in the BG and also try mint greens that was suggested. I will also try the Sunshine & Shadow effect tosee what it will do also.

    Thanks again for all your help. Now you have to wait and see!
    peace

    I agree, dark pops color. The light is also nice, but the wheels almost disappear with the lighter one. I like both though.
