Domino helped audition the pieces of fabric and we've decided that it will either be a darker William Morris style print, or a plain white. I'm erring towards the white. The colour balance on these photos is really poor, but you get the gist.
I also need to decide on what to use as quilting thread. There is only one local shop which sells thread - and even there, there is very little choice. Hmm.Whilst I'm sorting that little connundrum out, I think I'll go and do some more on the binding for Granny Helen's baby mat.
I think the William Morris is lovely, but the white would look great and let the front fabrics stand out more.
ReplyDeleteOh I love the William Morris!
ReplyDeleteOh I love the white, or is it the William Morris? Your quilt is so beautiful, anything would work!
ReplyDeleteDomino seems to prefer the William Morris. I'm torn. Both choices will make a lovely backing.
ReplyDeleteI love the quilt! The colors are quite comforting.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your views on this, girls!
ReplyDeleteI've taken a middle course (partly due to not having quite enough white to do the job!) and will be doing a checkerboard white/pattern back.
