I need your help deciding on the background for my Hands2Help quilt. I had planned to use white, as the pattern called for, and had it all cut and everything; but then my border fabrics arrived and I started to second guess myself. Plus, I was using slightly different fabric than the pattern called for anyway, so.....help me make my final decision, please!
Here is the white. I am a little concerned that my lighter bees will not look as nice. And, does someone going through chemo really want a mostly white quilt?? Yet, the picture of the pattern does look very cheer-y in white.
Or, I just happened to order this aqua for a later project, but I could just as easily use it now. Problem is, I have aqua bees. Do they show up enough or just blend into this background?
Here is the white next to my planned border fabrics:
And here is the aqua:
Well, what do you think?
of course, it's hard to tell on the screen...but I prefer the white and I think the border is fine... although I'd also consider switching out the gold (? looks beigey) for something a bit brighter.
