Black It Is!

I took the batik strips that I cut for tomorrow's Ami Simms String Quilting workshop to Needles Quilt Shop this morning to audition setting fabrics. I tried several different fabrics and after a few minutes I had it narrowed down to two choices, lime green or black. I liked them both equally as well and was having a tough time deciding until my friend, Kathy (blogless...hint, hint Kathy!) suggested the black batik with lime green quilting and binding. That was all it took...black it is!

    Yep I know what you mean I would have been torn between those two colours also but sounds like the solution is going to be great, Can't wait to see it in the next stage.

    This is going to be so beautiful. Very striking batiks, and the black really sets it off!
