Enjoy "Color My World" by Wendy Williams - This beautiful quilt is constructed of soft and textural shot cottons from Windham fabrics on a richly patterned background. It offers so many opportunities for personalization through both embellishment and quilting- you could add house numbers, decorations, people, pets, garden flowers- there are so many ways to make this quilt truly your own!
Let's use this Topic "Color My World Show and Tell" as a place to show off your beautiful work. That way, you know where to come to see what everyone is doing.
The topics that apply to each month are a good place to ask questions or make suggestions for each block.
AND when you post your photos to Social Media, like Instagram, Facebook, etc., use either of these hash tags so everyone there will be able to find our wonderful work:
I’m confused about the background. Our
History 101 looks way to busy for a background. Can someone share their thoughts and ideas for a background?
Thanks,

Hi Mary. Have you seen Barbara's youtube video where she discusses different choices for background fabric Starts at timestamp 9:00. There are also a few photos of peoples different choices for background fabric in the thread topic called Fabric.
I personally will be using a white batik that has random aqua dots on it for the background.
Its your quilt, make it your way.
I love quilt a longs where I get to see how everybody's different choices make a different quilt.
Hi, I just bought the History 101 canvas at my local quilt shop. It is a light weight canvas, so I don't think it will be a problem. I think with all of the solids used to make the houses, that the busy background will be perfect! I am excited to get the BOM started! I did see Van Gogh's Starry Night Sky fabric if you are looking for options. I found that on Hancock's of Padducha's site. That was going to be my 2nd choice. Hope you find what you like!
The Art History 101 in the Kit is not canvas, rather fine quilting cotton. Glad you are happy with the canvas, I have not seen or felt it.
